Does anyone have the Hartman Fuch reps that could share a few pictures and comment on quality and fitment? They seem to be one of the few remaining Fuch options.

Note: I did search, and while there are plenty of pictures of Fuch wheels and style wheels, I did not come across anyone from the community that has purchased the Hartmanns.

Thanks!

So, Rennslist for whatever reason won't let me upload pics from my MacBook.

So, look at my avatar and expand if you can.

I've since "glossed" them.

Great fit, real good to work with. Keep in mind, they are for road and show, I do not track these.

 

Thanks Mikes70.

Did you get the widebody rear fitment? The 11” rear seems to be the way to go on a C2. How did you glossify them? I was thinking the same thing.

Probably because your photos are in HEIC format (High Efficiency Image Codec) instead of JPG. You can convert them over to JPG with a converter app and then they'll upload.

 

Nice wheels. Have considered a set myself.

I recall seeing these displayed at Achtuning in Redmond while I was having spacers installed.

If you take the leap... post up the pics.

Edit: just noticed that the pics were watermarked by Achtuning. LOL

 

Yeah, Achtuning owns Hartmann. I’m on the eastside, so being close to Achtuning I thought was a positive with these wheels.

Having just picked up a set of genuine Sport Classic wheels and having considered these Hartmanns in the past, I can say that they are pretty damn close to the real thing judging from those pics. Some of the other replicas just look off either in their spoke design, spoke width, or lip design. The only real difference I see is that fact that the Hartmanns are a matte finish while the real Sport Classics are gloss.

 

More Seattle area 997 peeps! We should make a gathering in the Spring....

 

Exactly.

You can also open them and click "Save As" and choose your format (JPG, PNG, PDF, etc.)...save them wherever and upload.

I haven't had Hartmann Fuchs on my car, but I've only heard good things about them. I was considering them when I came across the 18" Fuchs replicas from tirerack.

I've also seen some Hartmann wheels on display at Achtuning in Redmond.

 

The rep said thats the only way they make them. But, with their offset, its a perfect fit. I mean dead nuts.

I glossed them with a automotive rattle can gloss from the local auto parts store. then let them cure for about a month then 3000 wet sanded by hand, then polish compound (detail type from bodyshop) then synthetic wax.
So far so good....

 

Thanx for the info. I had a couple questions regarding app and third party and mobile vs laptop, I sent you a pm as to not derail this thread. Any help would be appreciated, Mike

 

Awesome, thanks for the response.

Hi 99SevenFan, did you end up getting a set of the Hartman Fuchs rims?
Regards Simon

 

Thanks for the information. They look great. Are you still happy with them? I'm consisdering them for a 2003 996C2.
