I hated to do it, but I had to put winter rims on, living in the snow belt in akron. Their the gm steelies listed for the 2007 cobalt, so let me know what you guys think...It doesn't look too bad since the car is black.

 

They don't look like 18s...what size are they! You put snow tires on or all seasons?

 

They aren't 18's. Most likely 16's as 15's won't fit over the calipers. As for his tire type im unsure of.

 

Ha ha, got to fear the roo!!!!!!! ( I graduated from there)

Check out my winter wheels in the sig.

 

Jonyy's wheels look better!

 

not bad IMO, I like em. I decided to store mine instead and drive my wifes rig when it snows. The germans have a law that basically says if for any reason, even if I have snow tires, I get stuck and impede traffic they can fine me. So instead like I said, i'm storrin it. Figure this is a good time to get mods done.

 

yea they are 16's, and yea jonyys do look better, but i ran out of options, and that was pretty much all i can get right now. I think they are snow tires on there, i'm not too sure, they handle pretty good in the rain though.

jonyy knows you always have to fear to roo

 

Are those 5 star steelies?

 

nice, kev. look alot better than the ones erod sold me IMO. whatever tho. its winter so gotta represent the winter nasty-ness
PS. i officially have stage 2 envy. im about the only ss/sc in the area thats still rolling stock

 

ooooohhh i wish they would bring that law in over here too.
nothing more annoying than accidents/holdups/people in ditches because they think they can "brave it out" through the 2 inch ice with 1 foot of snow in their bald summer tires.

might convince a few people to buy the tires they should be buying instead of saving a few bucks and putting everyone elses life in danger.

 

probably the best looking "steelies" I've seen

they aren't half bad for winter wheels...

atleast you're not rocking real steelies, like 15" LS wheels with no hubcaps.

 

...whats the difference? those are teh 16's with no hubcaps lol its still the base wheel for the cobalt.

 

What kinda steelies are those? I only know of the 16" HHR steel rims that come from GM. I work at a dealership and there was nothing listed for an 07 steel rim for cobalts. Here's mine with 16" HHR steel rims......

 

Onefast how much did those rims and tires cost u in total, and whered u end up getting em?

 

I have 215/45VR18 Bridgestone Blizzaks on Black 5 spoke 18" ASAs. Won't put them on until next weekend but I post up some pics

 

Rims and tires together was about 1200, I got the rims through pace pontiac which is in warren, ohio. I accutually found the part number for those rims on here, part #9595389 listed for the 2007 cobalt as mentioned.


Bika where did you take that picture at? thats pretty cool. While I hated the idea of putting winter rims on, it is north east ohio, so you know have to ha. you better catch up and get to modding. haha

and yes i do know i don't have the hub caps for it, figured the black on black might look a little better?

 

i took the picture at Shenango resivoir just across the PA border in south pymatuming twp. i snuck down to the boat launch at sunset. i found a bunch of places on that river/resivoir that will make for some kickass summer photos.

modding will be slowly progressing once i get a better job. i aint making **** right now and i got tons of bills comin in

 

Why did you put the steelies one there? I was up in cleveland for new years and it was 50 degrees. Got much snow since then? And when is Cedar Point opening up? lol

 

Went to the dealer near work, $ 267 EACH. No thanx. Just way to much to put on snows.
