Took a gamble and once again came out triumphant. Behold, the lastest most daring hellaflush setup on a CM8!!!

Wheels: MB Wheels "Battle"
Front: 18x9.5" +23mm Rear: 18x9.5" +15mm

Concativity Reference



Hellastretch




Hawk is up in the air for the "experiment"



Painted Hubs since wheels have vent holes
Front

Rear


Aluminum Hubcentric Rings FTW


Front


Rear



Some captain and sierra mist in case I came out dissapointed...


Ready to put Blackhawk Down


Victory!!!
















UPDATE 10/18/09: This new setup has allowed me to go a full inch lower than I was on the 265s (Believe it or not). Lowered the Hawk a full 1/3" more today and I like this look the most. Better pics coming soon. Enjoy!

Wheels are nice! The stretched tire look doesn't do it for me.  Wayyy to small a tire.

I like the wheels a lot. Not a fan at all of the stretched tire though, but to each his own. What are the rings for?

I guess he has money to burn.  I'd rather waste my money on parts that actually make my car faster, hookers, and drugs.  Fucking amateurs.   :Smiley

Thanks guys. I was never a fan of stretched tire but was a fan of concaveness. Gotta take some bad with the good I guess. The hubcentric rings are so that the car's wheels ride on the hub, not on the lug nuts. Hope that makes sense.

I prefer the hellaflush look on euros more.  I'm not crazy about it on imports.  It's a good look, just not on the hawk.  Sorry JT, not my cup of tea.

Sorry, I gotta agree with Tim on this one. I do not like the look of wheels where the rim sticks out beyond the safety of what it should be. Stretched tires are one thing, but I don't think this look suits our cars wheel. The great thing is, who really gives a shit what I think, if you are happy and like it, then it really does not matter much what I think.

+1. I couldn't have said it better myself. Now, If you went uberwide on the tires as opposed to stretched then it'd be badass.
