Decided on getting some Hartmann RS4 replicas for the summer....looking at getting 19s. wondering if they will rub with the factory sport pkg? also tire size I was looking at is 235/35/19. Cant decide on the color just yet...polished or anthracite. Like them both...thoughts?? Thanks

 

Size is perfect I think. OD is about as close as you'll get to stock.

Color is whatever you happen to like. Personally I don't like colored wheels, black and dark grey are easily my least favorite...black looks like you're running snow tires on black steelies and grey looks like you ride your brakes all the time and never clean your wheels...but its all about personal taste...lots of guys don't like polished wheels.

What color is your car?

 

Thanks for the reply..I guess by polished i mean more to stock, that silver color, not chrome...link below is the polished im referring to. Car is black...looks just like the black Audi in second link; that one is paired to the "anthracite" color..looks more steel then polished silver. Also what offset? If you go to the Audi section on the site is has 5 different offsets for these rims...

Didn't mean chrome, I meant the same thing as you...OEM finsh.

The photos of the black car in the second link help illustrate why I don't like anthracite/grey wheels. Just not my thing. Definitely the polished look gets my vote...then if you don't like the look you can just ride your brakes for awhile and you've got a whole new look.

 

38mm or 45mm for the offset??

 

go with the 38 mm offset. also re-think or double check if you want 19's. 19's look wrong on our cars IMO. although, people have pulled off 19's (with a decent lowering , painted lowers, etc..)

 

I have a stock suspension setup with 19's To me it dosent look bad though it could sit a tad lower. And offset for me is front 28 offset and the rears are 22.5 offset. They sit flush with no rub and i added spacers to acheive this setting. The pic isnt with the spacers on.

 

run 18's if you are on stock suspension, 19's look too baller status for the ride height

 

My A4 is stock with sport suspension, seems to sit good and low on the stock 17's. I've seen pics of the 19's on the hartmann site, looks good with not a lot of gap

 

anyways, Found some VMR v708's 19's that are what im looking for, found them on pyspeed.com for roughly $1670 with tires (continental DWS 235/35's) and shipped...what you all think of the price??
