thank you sir.

keep em coming

16's are to small looking

Yep they are fine on a stock 2.2L....but I had almost every mod you could bolt on(and something ;)) and well traction issue because I had such little rotation mass.

i can has 16's (up front at least)

i had 16's once........now i have 18's, maybe soon to be 19's!

those huge tires that accompany 16s are so unattractive. :(

nah, big meaty tires up front are HAWT

Well I didn't feel like scrapping the ground with the tires I first looked at. Would've dropped me another freaking inch. I would've been slammed though. :lol:

eeehhhhhhh....on drag day yeah. :)

Yeah, but too meaty. Well lets just say my e-brake didn't keep me in place. Every quick burnout on my DRs pulled me 20 feet.

you need water. waterbox fixes that problem real quick

i have stock 16's, but i think 17 or 18 looks a bit better, although 18 might be a little too large on some

only the lt's with the sport package had 16's. my lt has the 15" aluminum wheels that look like a mini ss/tc wheel sorta lol

lol wut

lol i figured that would confuse people.

Yielded me slower times. I didn't feel like sitting there cooking the tires so I just dealt with quick spins to warm em up.

16's with a 225.50.16 look fine but you HAVE to be lowered.

The Cobalt is really a pretty large and bubbly little car, with big wheel openings, so it does like best with 17's in my mind. The diference between a 225/50/16 and a 225/45/17 is a half inch of sidewall, not really as dramatic as alot of people think. Not to mention that wheels are cheaper and lighter and that tires are cheaper.

I had 16's on the cavalier...

and in my opinion 16's are too small... but very smooth and lighter as compared to my 18's

so 16's are good?

so 16's are good?

Of course, theres nothing WRONG with them at all.....like I said wheels and tires are cheaper and the wheels will most likely be at least 3lbs each lighter than a comparable 17.

If you wanna run 16's, go for it! If I stick with my current wheel choice Ill be running 16s too because theres over a $600 price diference between 16 and 17 in the newest wheel I like.

so 16 = cheaper. good lol. what would be better preformance wise? 16 or 17

and then if 16s are lighter does the tire extra size just make up for that? the tires have to be some what bigger so it cant be just as light

You have less rotational mass with 16s if you have same tire size as the 17(clearly not the last number but you get the picture). But if the 16s are heavier then you lose any purpose.

If you compare any two identical model tires and the only difference is that one is a 225.50.16 and the other is a 22.45.17 youll likely find that there is almost always less than a pound difference(the 16 will be lighter), the 17s have less sidewall, so the sidewall has to be stiffer, more material. Very little difference in weight between these two sizes. And if you go with the 205/55/16 size(stock 16 size) youll find the 16 is almost always 2-3lbs lighter than the 17 of the same model

:lol: i'm so sorry but.. :lol:

what's so :lol: about that?

I paid $150 for the rims and tires together so I sported them

yeah man. this is my third season with this combo. I like it more and more every year. And hell yeah the price was right. I got all 4 rims as brand new take offs for $102.50 on Ebay. the tires were about 90 each.

I think ill get these for DRs in the spring......

10.6lbs

bwt?

bwt the wheel site ..lol

The only possible weigh those Konigs weigh 10.6lbs is if youre talking about 15x6 as the size, and even then 12-13 is more likely. 15s proly wont fit an SC.....

i actualy emaild konig and the weight for the 16x7 c-sharp wheels is 15.8

which isent too bad imo

If you are going to go 16's at least try to get some without a big lip...They would just look tooo small with a big lip on them..

Just my $.02

im about to buy wheels off of some dude on craigslist 16" steelie with 215 55R 16 winterforce will they fit my SS? cuz trust i wicked need snow tires

any one else like these?

http://www.bigwheels.net/index.php?location=wheels&action=view_model&model=006%20Black%20Stainless%20Steel%20Lip

Most 16's fit on SS/SC's theyd have to be real oddballs not too.

I think theres actually someone in this thread with that tire size for a winter setup....
