As the Hatch can have 19's and Prodrive supply 8.5x19 for both the STi 05> and the Hatch (GT2's), was wondering if anyone is running 19's on a Hawk.

Would like to see how any 19's look especially if running Prodrive Suspension/Springs rather then slammed on coil-overs. I assume these are using 225 or 235/35's

I've got a set in mind for my STi 07 Hawk, and wondering whether to stray from the usual 18 inch Speedline / Prodrive / Rota size and styles.

Stick to 18's, the car wasn't designed for 19's

Maybe, but it also wasn't designed for 9.5x18 and super stretched sidewalls.

HAve a look at RA Motorsportd Facebook page they have a demo car with 19's grids. Theres been a few scoob over the yrs with 19's mine included, its your car so run whatever size of wheel you wish! I'm considering going back to 19's when I get round to putting mine back on the road.

There was a crystal grey hawk posted up a few weeks back with Silver GT2's so have a search and you may find it.

Only thing I would say about 19's is that the tyres are a lot more expensive than 18's as I looked at 19's myself, also to keep the overal diameter the same you need lower profile tyres which will harden the ride.

Cheers, yep appreciate that profile comes down and have swapped my classics from 16's to 18's on 35 profile over the years. Alot depends on the tyre choice.
Stock Bridgestones seem very hard on the sidewall, as previously swapped from 16 inch Bridgestones to 18 inch Toyo, if anything the toyo rode better.

Do it, think it will look great!

Depends on the style of wheel imo mate.

cheers Wiley, done a search on D.O.M's and it looks pretty good.
I might have to see if I need the Tein S springs though instead of my current Prodrive for an extra few mm (not sure my drive will allow it though).

Hi

We have supplied a few Hawkeye Stis over the years with 19" wheels.
This was our demo car from 2007 with 19" wheels fitted:-
