The "Blackhawk" gets new shoes

So the "Blackhawk" is almost four years old. Not to shabby for a tough old vet with only 13K on the clock.
Now to the point. Just got new wheels. They are a new company and design by my good friend from Wheels Botique in Miami.
And NO, NO, NO and did I say NO, these having nothing to do with the likes of 360 Forge or any of their other BS companies and Jordan!!!

They are forged 3 piece wheels built exact to specs.

Fronts: 20 x 9 with 275/30/20 Toyo TR1's
Rears: 20 x 12 with 305/30/20 " " This is a bit taller tire (27.2") but will help with top end. This a stout tire.
Yes that's correct, 12" wide rears! We manage to get it done and no fender roll. The 305 tire gets nicely stretched over the 12" wide rim just like on the GT3/RS's.
There are NO spacers (do not believe in them). Axiom: if a wheel is built correctly for your car there should be no need for spacers.

F: 20 X 9 = 23 lbs
R: 20 X 12 = 25.5 lbs.
The weights are not outrageously light but not too bad.

The name is Concave Forged.


Some pics of the "Blackhawk", enjoy. Oh btw a few pics I was just having a little fun.

Wheels look awesome Juan. Love the concaveness as well as having a lip. I would consider those very light for a 3 piece wheel. The 360 Forged Mesh 8s I had were 26.4 and 27.4.

Thanks Ranger, those wheels fill out the fenders spot on... lovely!

Had a look at your other photos, your a man after my own heart... your GT3 RS is the dogs and is on the cards for me next spring in that very gorgeous bright orange.

Juan what offset did Wheels Botique/you use on these wheels? Again they fit perfect!

I'm with you on the spacers thing.
