My own "Let the hate begin thread" My unique wheels

update on pg 4 https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/show...2&postcount=57

The regulars know I was toying with this idea for a while.
I just got this pic from my powdercoating guy

Picking them up later this week.
I know many people won’t like them…but hey they are different right?

I think he is going to have to figure something else out for lowering since the guy who had these rims last was rubbing.

He said he was only rubbing if he had back seat passengers or hit a pothole really hard. I may risk it and lower it on sportlines and just not put any weight in the back.

You need one of those No Fat Chicks stickers

Get some stiffer shocks and you should be good

Also you may want to ask him if he cut the bumpstops when he installed the sportlines.
