We brought in our Audi C5 RS6 to fit the same Hartmann 204s and 209s we tested out on the Audi S5 that was here not too long ago. The 19×8.5 wheels with an aggressive 25mm offset are perfect to fill the wider fenders on the C5 RS6. “Legendary” RS6 styling meets “evolutionary”, new RS6 styling with the Hartmann HRS6 – 204s below.

The Hartmann HS5 – 209s offer a much darker contrast to any of the factory offerings and a more sportier look with the 209’s sword-like edges and machined face. The stance is just right, no need for spacing and plenty of brake clearance for those massive rotors and calipers.

These are likely the last I’ll get to shoot our RS6 as we’re putting it up for sale and making room for one of Audi’s latest direct-fuel injected V8s. We’ll let you know more about that at another time…

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.

The new RS6 sports some fantastic-looking wheels with a unique tri-split spoke design, and we’ve now had a chance to install our similarly designed Hartmann HRS6 – 204 Wheels on both a B6 and B7 Audi A4 – I could not be happier with the results!  At 19×8.5 inches and a 38mm offset, the stance is perfect.  Both cars below have been lowered with STaSIS Streetsport Coil-Overs.

RS6-style Hartmann 204 Wheel:

• 5×112

• 19×8.5, 38mm offset – $295 per wheel
