Default Achtuning-no Hartmann wheels in stock?

Any word on why they've been out of stock on Hartmann wheels for so long now? They haven't had any 19" RS6 Reps for at least 7 months now. I've been checking since around last October and they still don't have them in stock. Are they getting out of the wheel/tire business? I've tried to hold out as long as I could but tires need to be replaced soon so I wanted to find out if I need to look elsewhere for them. Any information is appreciated. Thanks!

They've been getting a lot of new styles in lately, the old RS6 style wheels were probably not as much of a priority as the new lineup.
Looks like they just got about 800 wheels in stock so I'm sure they plan to stay in the wheel/tire biz.

Default RS6 wheels are actually in route

It is true we have been out of 19" for some time now. The factory that was producing the wheel in Italy for us abruptly closed last year leaving us in a jam. It takes about six months for a new mould to be produced, we done it and they are now on the water. We have the 17" and 18" in stock now

Thanks for the information Bill. Do you have an approximate ETA on them? Will the color be an exact match from the previous mold? The RS6 Reps that I purchased from you a couple of years ago have a very subtle black shadowing between the spokes. Not exactly sure how to describe it but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Anyways, I'm replacing two of them that are bent so I was just wondering if the color will be the same as the ones that I already have? Thanks.
