HAMANN HM2 wheel question
Can anyone post pics of s4 with HM2 wheels(preferably nogaro if possible) and also is there anywhere in the CT area that can drill them to 5x112? thanks for the help

A beautiful wheel IMO. I ended up going BBS RC's though.<ul><li><a href="http://stuff.tungstentech.com/Cars/S4_Wheels/s4_wheels.html">page of several wheels on the S4 including the HM2</a></li></ul>

Re: go with moven RG5, hamann replica, they have 5x112 bolt pattern with 38 offset
yeah I tried those, in the 19"(guess thats all they come anyway) they did NOT clear the brake calipers(stock brakes).

Sorry, not standing still but
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/52646/sears_point_2004_005.jpg"></center><p>I'm running them on my car now. They clear my Stoptech 355's no problem. Two points to make:
- I ran the same set of wheels on my A4 and taco'ed two of them against a curb hard in a little 180 move I pulled unintentionally. The only part of the wheel that did survive was the hub area, so I will personally swear by a redrilled Hamann. Used to worry about it in the back of my mind, but not anymore.
- They look better than Oettinger RE's IMO. Better spoke shape both facing wheel and in near profile. Lug hole area is what really does it for me though.
