Default Anyone interested in Deep Dish Firehawk or WS6 factory rims?

I've been talking to a rep for ICONZ wheels about recreating the 5 star factory-style wheels from the Firehawk and the WS6, but in 18x10, 18x11 and 19x10 and 19x11 sizes, with the possibilty of Deep Dish too. They supposedly can recreate any design rather affordably. I've been looking for something to replace my road rashes Hawk rims, and being that are discontinued, they are hard to find. Having them bigger and wider, would make them even more functional and appealing....then, we wouldn't have to buy Corvette replicas for our F-Bodies. If enough interest is generated, they may do it. Prices and design to come. Let him know with feedback, he'll be checking this thread!

if they can recreate any design, to hell with firehawks, ws6's, ect. build us some ccw and fisk look alikes in 10" and 11" widths that don't cost a fortune. now that would be impressive.

I'd go for a set of SS 10-spokes with a deep dish. Photoshopped them once, and they look badass. But i'm with sr71, fikses that a college kid could afford lol. A set of mesh wheels in a 17x11 and 18x10 would sell pretty good too, i'd buy those in a heartbeat. Like a set of HP evo's/lightnings with a deep dish 17x11 and 18x10

They have a CCW 505a/ 500 look a like already on their website...supposedly, with good pricing, which I am still trying to get them to tell me. I love the CCW's too....wish they would do a price break or a group purchase or something.

I agree. I have four original chrome hawk rims but two are pretty corroded so I went aftermarket. I love these rims though and would be game for this offer for sure.

I've always liked my stock '02 WS6 wheels, but always wanted more of a dish. I think it would look really good! I'd be curious to see them in 18x10's as well.
