Ok guys so Im finally gettin my rims sometime this summer, im really excited!!
I drive a 2007 Cobalt LT and will be getting 17" Azul Speed 6 rims in hyperblack... these are what they look like.. I think they willl look nice on my silver balt... black is played out in my opinion, and i really dont like chrome, not my style... so ima go with the hyperblack...



now about the tires... what size do u think i should get? 225/40/18? i want them to be a nice low profile tire but nothing TOO thin that a pot hole will ruin my rims... u know? something nice but not tooo fat... any opinions guys?

 

nice

 

thanks

bump... anyone?

 

I really like them. Find out how much rubber the SS has, and I would say that is a safe bet. Also compare prices for tires.

 

thanks green... i will look into that... im guessing the size i have posted in the first post should be fine cuz it is one of the options that is offered to make it a tire and rim package....


any pics of the SS tires available?

 

well first off if you are getting 17" wheels... you dont want 225/40/18 tires... those are for 18"wheels.. thats what the 18 is for... i dont know my tires and sizes other than that...

the first number is how wide it is.. the the bigger the number the wider it is...
the second numer is a ratio of how tall it is...
that last number is the size rim it is for...

 

my bad, i didnt even catch that bro... lol i meant to write 225/40/17... thanks

thanks for that man

 

no problem... i wish i would help you other wise...haha

 

225/40/17 should keep you pretty close to the same overall diameter of the stock tires......which is good, because your speedo won't be off.

 

****, it just hit me, getin new rims and tires will affect my speedometer?

its not bad for it though, right?

is it better to buy rims and tires online for a cheaper price, or stop by a shop and pay full price? im debating...
