Wheel Supplier Question Hartmann vs WheelPlus
I was planning on getting some RS6 replica wheels and the main 2 places that have them are Hartmann and WheelPlus on Ebay.

They both seem to have mostly positive reviews with a few negative ones. They don't seem super cheap where you definitely know the quality is going to be poor. Does anyone have experience with either one and if so how did you like them (primarily long term)? Fitment, quality, balance, weight, customer service, etc?

The wheels from Hartmann aren't exactly the same. The wheels from Hartmann have no bends in them at all and are closer to the 5 dual spoke wheels that are on some of the S5s.
A friend and I ordered a set of the wheels each, from Wheel Factory. They were lighter than the factory wheels, balanced with no issues, and show virtually no brake dust. The wheels from wheel factory have meet all of our expectations with the exception of the centercaps. We both ordered factory centercaps and those look much better. We also ordered the plastic lug nut covers from one of the aftermarket companies.

They come with a couple of sets of centercaps, but the factory ones look a lot better. I found a set on ebay for $15 that had Audi part numbers on the back.
You would need a centercap that looks like this:
and then get the lug covers like these:
