FINALLY, pics of my Firehawk with 18" iForged Aero's....

[JR HAWK 9]

After numerous months of waiting, here they are:

18x9.5 fronts with 265/35/18 Michelin PS2's
18x10.5 rears with 295/30/18 Michelin PS2's

The pics are a bit dark because the sun was going down and my car seems to take darker pics for some reason. I am not a photographer, so I really don't know the in's and out's....lol

:drool: :drool: :drool: Nice wheels!! You should take a few shots without the bra on it!

[Teufelhunden]

Very nice:thumbsup

[JR HAWK 9]

thanks guys....

Tommy, little better than those 16" Firebird rims I had on it before eh? :goof

I have a photo shoot scheduled with Yellow Wagon later in July....should be fun :)

about the bra, yeah, I could do that...but I have some of that 3M clear shield on the front end in places that the bra's seams contact the car to elimanate any scuffs . It doesn't look that great in person w/o the bra because you can see those clear strips, but I don't think it would be that visible in pictures (see my website for old pics with the bra removed, if you look closely you can see what I am talking about). I have had the bra on the car now for 5 years (take it off frequently to wash/polish) and my front end looks like new yet after 54,000 miles :)

OMG THAT IS INCREDIBLY HOT!!! Its been said already but lose the bra for some better shots. The color looks great in the sunset though!

Are the wheels polished or chrome?

I've had polished Iforged Evolutions on my C5 for over 3 years. Excellent quality wheel, and very strong.

Now that you have them, I'm sure you agree the wait was worth it. :thumbsup

I don't want it any lower...

there looks to be wheel gap because I am running a 295/30 tire in the rear and a 265/35 tire in front. I am already 1.5" lower than stock and if I mounted a 315/30 or 295/35 tire in the rear and a 275/35 tire in front the wheel gap would be noticeably less. I choose the tires I currently have because I wasn't sure if a 295/35 or 315/30 would fit w/o rubbing issues...so I played it safe and then I also had to match as close as possible the overall radius of the front to the rear to keep my ABS happy....so that led me to a 265/35 front.

I also like to stretch out the tires on the rim a bit to decrease sidewall flex

[JR HAWK 9]

DROOOOOL...sweet car...any mods?

just a few bolt ons....

see my site for the list....

[JR HAWK 9]

Looks awesome. Did you aromorall the bra?

kinda...lol

I used Zaino's tire dressing on it.....it keeps it looking like new.

[Ka24et]

[JR HAWK 9]
