Default Got new wheels for the Hawk...

My TTM'S are finally on the little Hawk they look killer in person with the deep lip and black on black. And custom Firehawk center caps,they look alot better than the dark grey american racing center cap as you can see in the third pic. The center cap is in black with a chrome Hawk.

Hold onto your firehawk wheels. They are very hard to find and expensive if you do find a set.

Those look awesome! Good choice on keeping the hawk wheels as well. I would like to see some pics outside with good lighting and better angles.

Looks great... If I were you I would clean out your wheel wells really good with a pressure washer and then spray a nice gloss black in there. That would complete the look. I do it to my car about once a year. Just an opinion.

Your 100% correct about the wheel wells. Its just a little cold in chicago. I will definetly do it come spring time. I want to lower it about 1 inch all around. I don't want to go to low since I have L/T.
