What year Firehawk? I have the ones that came on the 93 but they are 16 x 8 but you can get them 17" to. They are made by ROH. they also came on the IMPALA SS. I got mine from HP Motorsports.

They were made by Ronal. They were called Ronal Firehawk's (pretty clever huh ?).Classic Industries had them a couple of years ago in 17x8 but the actual cars used 17x9.5's. Hope this helps.

Classic industries doesn't have them anymore. I waited almost a 2yrs with them on back order and they finally told me they couldn't get them. Hope that this helps.
