I've flown Hawks since 82. I'm not quite sure the reasoning behind your question, but the answer should be "No," under most conditions. Since the main wheel is aft of the gunner's window, you will not normally be able to see the wheel, unless you have the bubble-style pilot window. The crewchief/gunner should be able to monitor the actual position of the wheel, if that is your concern. Of course, in a dust environment, that plan goes out the window.
Hope this helps a bit.
