Default RS4 replica's

Summer's coming soon and I would like to get some RS4 replicas on my 2.7t. I already know about the reliability of the Velocitys vs The Hartmanns but I just love the look of the Velocitys more. So I've been looking around and theres some Hartmanns that look too flat in my opinion and some that seem more curved. I know the Velocity's are more curved but I'm confused. Are there more than one style of the Hartmann RS4's?

I would appreciate pics from anyone that has these rims.

Buy my RS4 DTMs, they look better

Just for quality reasons, I would just not consider the velocity rims.

dunno if you want 18s or 19s but when you compare the two, compare apples to apples, 19's might be flatter

Very funny GIGI. I do like the DTM's but I would rather get those for winter. I know how you keep saying not to get the Velocitys. You practically preach it. They just are so good looking. They're tempting.

just get 6 of them then in case they brake/bend/peal...
I just think sometimes it is better to spend more $ upfront.

Its just really killing me because I would get the Hartmann's but I also want to have the car look good the way I would like also. Compare them. like WTF!!!

Look at the back wheels for the best comparison.

Isee what you're saing but I think the cars, lighting are different and might accentuate the difference.
Also I'd ratehr have quality thna such a small look diff but it is not my car!


this is the hartmann, you can clearly see it is not flat

Yea I was thinking it was the angle/ light etc but Im with you 100%. I would rather get something that will be worth it later on. Its just strange to me because Ive seen the wheels on their site and they dont look flat and when I see them on a car they do. BUT Ive been to their site before but never saw the "click to see the wheels on a car" button. THEY LOOK AWSOME. Im sold. They dont look anything like the other ones that are supposed "hartmanns". Thanks GIGI, your like an Audi god.
