That is an amazing setup! Not usually a fan of the white wheels, but the stripes really tie it into the car.

Thought about it, but with brushed centers on a simple 5-spoke. I don't dig mesh style wheels for this car, they look better on Euro cars.

I may cycle through a few different sets/brands on this car, just for fun.

WOW I didnt think I would like them at all being white AND 6 spoke but like stated above, it ties in nice with the blue/white theme of the car and the lug pattern. I also love the huge dish on the rear! Cars Looking Sharp as always Tony! I see you already did some work to the Hawk with new rotors

Not bad, works well since you have the stripes. However I think the white grabs too much attention away from the car... but maybe its something I'd have to see in person.

I think the white pops too much but I can see it matches the stripes.
