Just know what you are getting rather than take it on face value, isn't that hard to peak behind the curtain

Good choice on the BBS SX - they'll fit, many won't. The Audi OEM A5/S5 9 x 20" option wheels (maybe next year for the US?) are made by BBS.
Thanks for the info Glisse! It's funny, I did so much research on rims and I'm sure I read somewhere that Hartmann was made in Germany. Looking it up again, it looks like they are "designed in Germany", whatever that means and may be made in Italy? I knew Achtuning was their distributor in the US, but assumed it was just a distributor.
Glad I went with the BBS wheels
