Yes, we can make Audi Q7 wheels fit your Passat CC…

Written by Dion on August 31, 2009 – 2:45 pm -

After a quick visit through our showroom and seeing pictures of a bagged Passat CC running a 20″ version of the Hartmann 446 Wheels in Europe, Brad selected our 19″ Hartmann 446 Wheels for his own.

The Hartmann 446 Wheels replicate a style found on an Audi Q7 and is a 5×130 bolt pattern so H&R 5×112 to 5×130 adapters were needed to make this particular package work. 245/35-19 Falken FK452s wrap the tires. The combination of Porsche’s high offset and H&R’s 20mm adapters made the fit just right for this CC!

Kickin’ it old school…

Written by Dion on May 22, 2009 – 9:39 am -

I know you’ve noticed it… whether we like it or not the 80s are back again. Rob sure has noticed it too and when he found an opportunity to pick up a set of old-school Nothelle N-Classics he figured “what the hell!” The wheels however are a 5×100 bolt pattern and Rob’s 4×100 Jetta hubs weren’t going to accommodate the wheels without the help of H&R adapters.

The adapters are 20mm’s thick so the stance would also get pushed out some, which isn’t a bad thing – we always like to give our cars that “bulldog-stance” for that aesthetic appeal but the wider track also does help slightly with over-all handling. Rob has certainly noticed it.

With the adapters on, the wheels bolted right up and Rob’s Jetta is kickin’ it old school, like an old fool, who’s so cool… Ok enough of that.

Eurotuner’s Project Silverstone

Written by Dion on December 11, 2008 – 1:42 pm -

Sam (eurotuner) sent me one of his latest shots of the VW Mk4 GTI 1.8T he drives – Sam picked up our Hartmann G5 Wheels last season and has been using H&R 5×100 to 5×112 adapters to fit the 19×8 Audi-fitment wheels.

Car is lookin’ great Sam!!

With all this “winter-prep” going on around us…

Written by Dion on October 22, 2008 – 3:52 pm -

… I felt I wanted one last run of summer styling before the incoming cold weather meant it would be best to run an all-season wheel and tire. I took the “winter set-up” BBS RCs off the Golf and mounted these Porsche design Hartmann 367 wheels.

As with most of the Porsche-specific styles offered, the Hartmann 367 is staggered, running 18×8 up front and 18×10 in the rear. Just like our Mk4 Jetta project, H&R DRA Adapters were used to mount the 5×130 Porsche bolt pattern to the 5×100 Volkswagen hub. The Jetta ran 30mm adapters both front and rear but since the front fenders on this Golf are not yet rolled to accommodate a wider stance, I felt it safer to run a set of 20mm adapters I had laying around.

Since the car is lowered with STaSIS Streetsport Coil-Overs, and a 10″ wheel isn’t the customary width to run on the back of a VW Mk4, smaller tires were mounted to ensure fender clearance resulting in a “stretched” look. Now this small of a tire is really pushing the limits and is not recommended for most, but with proper installation and tire pressure monitoring, there will not be any issues whatsoever running this set-up.
