as the title says.. will they clear the caliper?

im looking at selling my aftyermarket 16's... and no longer have my stock 15's , i have a set of honda 14 inchers laying around and want to know if i can use them....

thanks in advance

 

only way to find out is to try it. I think it would leave WAY too much wheel gap though. the 15's leave too much as it is.

 

Uh... why? I wouldn't put 14s on these cars!

 

so anyone know for sure? I have these rims in my other house in mexico..... so i dont want to have to cross the border and wait in line for like 2 hrs to cross back just to find out they dont fit.....

 

i know on my old cavalier it had 10" front brakes, 10 5/8" rears (disc conversion) and 14" was the absolute smallest i could run, i had less than 3/16" between the rim (aluminum) and caliper. i dont imagine 14s would fit on a balt.

 

plz tell me they don't have the honda sign on it. and how long do u plan on having these on the balt.

 

yea my cavalier came with stock 14's too.....
does the cobalt have bigger brakes?

yes they have a honda sign, and no it doesnt bother me..... i just need them for transportation, and thats it. i dont care about looks anymore, since i am selling off all of my aftermarket parts and keeping the car as simple as i can..... i only need it to take me from point A to B...

 

atleast cover them up or something. sry it bothers me alot. i once saw a toyota with volkswagen wheels and it got to me. r u planning on selling the car eventually or getting a new car? y r u selling off ur parts?

 

I dont think you ever saw a toyota with VW wheels, most VWs use 5x112 which is pretty rare but who knows

 

The Stock brakes on the LS are 10.1" in the front so according to what is said here, It will be tight but I am pretty sure it will work. lots of things can be factors but no one really knows for sure....
What size is you spare(donut) maybe if its like a 14" or something, then those rims might work after all..... the ones on the ss/sc are 16" to clear the calipers.
It might be a bigger spare though cause maybe they used a bigger diameter tire but its worth a shot.

heres the link for those rotors size...

well maybe something else but i know i've seen that situation before. might've been toyota with honda or vice-versa. i really don't remember the company names but i know i've seen it.

 

then it looks like they might fit.. i might shave off the honda emblems and refinish them a silver or black color just so it looks stock...

I just got tired of the problems associated with driving an exterior wise modded car... i already have a show car, and i dont need two..... i just want to be able to drive to and from work without worrying about breaking my kit/ cops pulling me over for dumb things only because the car stands out/ worrying about ppl breaking into my car because it looks like it has some dope system.. etc...........

u guys know about all these annoying problems..

 

the spare on an LS is a 15" spare but 14's may still clear the calipers... if not u can find some stock 16's for sale here.. OrngBalt is selling his.

 

ok so they definitely fit........ its a tight fit, but they fit, no rubbing on the caliper at all
