I also find myself having dirty thoughts about wheels but we'll see what comes of that, seen as I may have secured a set of tein springs
Couldn't resist hey jake lol

Great choice on the wheels Jake. IMO Grid's are the best looking wheel on a Hawk by far. Will be interested to hear if/how the 18 x 8.5 affect the handling dynamics of the car.

I've spent the last week looking for wheels, tbh most of the ones I liked were either silly expensive or not available, then the grids popped up super cheap meaning they will have cost me nothing once mine go
I'm still undecided on white only because I don't have the time.
