Last Fall, we brought you news from our friends at Hawks Third Generation regarding the release of their black, 17×9-inch GTA wheel. The response we’ve received was huge, as there has been something of a resurgence in popularity for the ’80s-era F-car. The wheels have proven so popular in fact, that Hawks has since launched these gold versions for those of you who want to update your GTA/TTA wheels with something of a modern size.
Providing improved handling characteristics, modern tire size options and an updated look to your classic third-gen, these are the perfect solution for those who want the modern benefits, without sacrificing the original overall styling, or theme, of the OEM wheel. Learn more about these awesome rollers from the official release below!
