These are a love/hate wheel so I'm sure it won't be some's cup of tea. I personally like them, the centers match the Hawk script. 18" all around with Nitto Invos up front with 305 MTs out back. Yes I have stock Hawk wheels for you purists out there. !4x4 mod in the works so don't bash me too hard on that

You can count me in on the hate side, but I have seen much, much worse. All that matters is that you like them.

Dropping it will help but for some reason I see them as more of a Camaro wheel. I do like them though.

For some reason, to me they look computer generated on the car.

Those are my old wheels, and they look way better in person. I don't know why, but I was never able to get a real good picture of them on either of the cars I had them on.





Lower it!!

I think they would look better if they didn't have rivets. But I like they way they sit on the car and the color goes well with the black.

With a better stance a lot of opinions here will be put to shame.

Yea Wes, they're a lot better in person, as you said. Lowering will come soon....sooner after fenders are rolled.

That's why I like them so much I think. I cant afford CCWs, Fikse, or any other high end wheels so its real hard to be different around here.
