With Ian’s S5 sitting here waiting for some headlight brackets to arrive from Germany, we mounted two different 19″ Hartmann Wheels so we can add images to our gallery. On one side the Audi S5 sported the Hartmann HS5 – 209 Wheels styled after the factory S5 wheel, with the exception of having a machined face on our version. On the other, the new RS6-styled Hartmann HRS6 – 204s . Below are the results…

Both sets of wheels are 19×8.5 with a 25mm offset. The car is lowered on STaSIS Ohlins SL Suspension and the rear wheels could stand to come out about 5 more millimeters. Those of you looking to get an even more aggressive stance with these wheel specs could easily achieve this by adding an H&R 10mm spacer up front and 20mm spacers out back.

When Ian stopped by last October with his Audi S5, it allowed us to get our first up-close-and-personal look at Audi’s latest V8 coupe.

Ian had us set aside a set of our RS4-styled Hartmann 252s in 18×8 and a 32mm offset so we could eventually wrap some Dunlop M3s around his new winter wheels. Concerned with stance, Ian had H&R DR spacers and a STaSIS Ohlins SL Sport Suspension Kit ordered so we could tackle all tasks at once. Unfortunately, his euro-spec headlight delivery was delayed until just recently and we are now finally getting around to throwing on Ian’s parts for him. After all things were said and done…

The stance couldn’t look any better for a winter set-up. Can’t wait for this thing to come back for the S5-styled 20″ Hartmann 209 Wheels when the weather shapes up!
