Audi A8 (D3) on 20-inch Hartmann QS-10 Wheels
Written by Dion on September 23, 2008 – 4:48 pm -The “Turbine” style wheel on Steven’s D3 A8 was never a favorite of his. Fortunately we had the Hartmann QS 10 wheel as an alternative. The Hartmann QS 10 is a style taken from one of the Audi Q7 wheels and mimics the split-spoke design of the B7 RS4 wheel, but with 3 additional spokes. The stance on this A8 never changed since the Hartmann QS 10 wheel is available in the same 20×9 size the “Turbine” wheel is, which made the decision that much easier for Steven.
Tires were supplied and we had TPM sensors that had to be removed from the original set-up and transferred over to the new wheels. This swap is fairly simple however in this particular case, new TPM sensor valve stems had to be supplied since the old ones had been seized – thankfully we stock the necessary hardware to make things work. Before long, sensors were swapped over and this D3 A8 was sitting pretty with the new wheels… an even more elegant look then what the “Turbines” offer!
