yes, if the bolt pattern matches. on the other hand, rota does tend to make an agressive offset wheel since they mainly focus on rare jdm replicas. to get a flush look on your car I wouldn't go higher than a +30 offset (lower the number the farther the wheel sticks out) but if you want to do fender flares and stuff which imo would be awesome! then do work and get some 0 offset wheels :P

i believe the ones im looking at are like 35 or 40 should pretty flush and i think the RB would look sick on a sedan cobalt.

lots of people put them on datsun 240z's
I think you need killer stance to pull it off, but it can be done. to each his own man whatever you like.

don't listen to this idiot. yes, rota wheels happen to be pretty low quality but if you wanna do burnouts and hit pot holes go get some weld racing wheels.

im not set on RB's but they are one of my top choices. like you said though it will be hard to pull it off. ima see if i can pull it off with some coilovers and stuff.
