Who makes the highest quality RS4 replica wheel?

Hartmann is my personal preference.

LOL. Nope. I have FIVE friends with them. Which would be my one complaint about the RS4 reps; they're already played out. Moreso even than black BBS LMs with a red time attack stripe.
I can get you some pics tomorrow AM (computer is dead, posted about it in my local forum) if you would like them. They look amazing, you can (or at least could, Hartmann may be out of stock right now) get them in forged... I just think that to many people have them already for me to get a set. (Boy I must just seem like the biggest jerk about wheels. :D First I'm harping about the virtue in avoiding a staggered fitament, and now I'm saying don't get these or those... :D ) |

My personal opinion... My factory wheels are fine for me right now. I don't see any S4's with them, as they were only available on my car.
http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/e...ProfileDay.jpg I'm going to be getting some 19's and summer tires in a bit (though I might be buying another S4 instead) and going with something like this: http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/e...llardoReps.jpg Hartmann Gallardo reps, which look amazing on the B7 when you get 19's. Again, all of these are for looks. I'll be going with HRE's or iForged rims on the second car, which will be built for track use. I'll track down the pics I have of an Ibis White B7 on the G5's. It looks amazing... |
LOL...
To continue to rant (I can't help myself). There is nothing wrong with the BBS LM or RS4 reps on a B7. The reason that so many people have them is that they look amazing. I just hate having to see "my wheels" on everyone else's car... If you love the RS4 rims, the forged Hartmanns (when you can get them) are a great way to go. BBS LM's are also really a great wheel on the car. http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/e...8/Alientic.jpg And there are a multitude of wheels that I'm not even remembering. Those TSW's you posed up looked pretty good, but I have to ask what the weight on them is... |
stormins4... you're thinking about getting another s4?? what year and color.. and why??
|
LOL. My car is a 25Quattro and isn't "common." For some reason I think that it would be a bad thing to modify the car when it's one of only 250 made (I'm sure some owners here would disagree :D ). They were produced by Quattro GmbH, the same people who make the RS lines, and it really is one of those things that's already unique. I've been able to find one other in the state.
But I'm not the type to be able to leave a car alone. I have never been able to keep a car stock, and so I know that I am going to have to buy another if I plan on leaving this one alone. Right now, the plan is the B5 S4, probably in white. We (I have a friend enlisted to help with the project, as she happens to be one hell of a welder) will be going with an interesting accent color for a guys car! It's going to be a PITA but I am excited about the project. Interior coming out, buckets going in, full cage, and functional aerodynamic and cooling body work. It's going to be a lot of fun. Then working on getting RELIABLE power out of the engine (forged internals and a pair of ball bearing KO4's, with the right fueling and internals). I don't want a drag car, I want a reliable track car that happens to be able to keep quick on the straights. Even talking about the project gets me amped up. :D |

sounds awesome. cant wait to see it. im thinking about leaning towards a b5 s4 avant and do the KO4's and all that good stuff..
|
^ That's not a bad call. I think that the B5 is the easiest platform to tune and prep for track work, and aside from having to swap out several parts that I wouldn't on a newer platform (center diff being the big one), it's going to be the easiest to work on. I have a friend with a B6 S4 in Dolphin, and a B5 S4 Avant in Imola... Not a bad pair.
:D |

Hartmann forged for the RS4 reps. Best quality replica wheels.
