A quick glance at the new wheel found on the incoming Golf R was enough to convince Willie he wanted a set for his VW (Mk5) R32. Knowing prices would be through the roof on an OE wheel, he gave us a call first to see if we could be of any help. While the Hartmann Wheel line-up doesn’t have an exact match, the HRS6-204 wheel was close enough and offered a slightly more aggressive offset, and in a 19″ diameter! For Willie, it was perfect!

We spoke briefly about suspension so I suspect he’ll be back soon… Right, Willie?

Hartmann’s HTT-256-GS Wheel is now available in a high-offset for VW Mk5/6 and Audi A3 fitment!

Hartmann HTT-256-GS:
* 19×8.5 et47 – List Price: $285

Will get you some on-car (Mk5) pictures as soon as possible! Click the image above to be directed to our website or contact us if you have any questions.

Due to our large volume of Hartmann Wheel sales, we have been successful in negotiating lower pricing with our wheel manufacturer and I am very pleased to report we will be passing those savings to you, our very valued customer! Over the next few days, we will be making changes to Hartmann Wheel pricing online, and you’ll notice some price reductions as large as 20%! Thank you to everyone who continues to put their faith and trust in Achtuning and Hartmann Wheels!

Heath had been itching to get a new set of wheels for his Mk5 Jetta Wolfsburg, and when the time was right, a set of 19×8.5 Hartmann Mesh 305s were chosen. The Mesh 305 continues to be a popular wheel choice with its classic multi-spoke design.

The 48mm offset on an 8.5″ wide wheel with 225/35-19 Falken FK452s bring the face of the wheel closer to the fender then his previous 8″ wheels with a higher offset, widening the stance on the car and giving it that sportier look. Heath mentions suspension is the next choice for an upgrade, one we feel will improve over-all stance significantly as well as help plant all 4 corners to the ground.

Despite the rain and early arrival of darkness these days, we were still able to get Mario’s Work VS-XX wheels on for him. The anticipation of seeing the final outcome was overwhelming so we even decided to go out for an informal ‘shoot’ on our way home…

At 19×8.5″ all around, these Work VS-XX wheels fill the fenders of this Mk5 GLI perfectly and Mario didn’t have to do a single thing to change his original stance since careful measuring had ensured proper fitment. A final offset of 45mm was selected to maximize the lip on a high-offset requiring Mk5 yet push the face of the wheels out as close to the fender as possible without any tire-to-fender contact issues.

Mario took some of his own pictures during the shoot, most of which can be found in his testimonial (and fantastic write-up!!) but I like his photography style and wanted to share his pictures here with you as well.

Mario, congratulations on the purchase of your dream wheel! We thank you for the opportunity and we look forward to doing more business with you in the future. Your Mk5 Jetta GLI is by far one of the hottest in the Pacific Northwest!!
