Anyone want SS/NA wheels? They're just sitting here collecting dust. I can never use them again since I'm 5x114...let me know!

Just ordered one inch spacers for the HHR...fitment should be nice...probably will have to have the fenders rolled and pulled.

So I talked with the guy that's going to be rolling my fenders this weekend and he's thinking based on the pictures that I sent him that I may have to go with a different tire setup. He said he won't know for sure until he sees my car but he said there's a good chance it won't work with my current setup. I'm running 225/40/18 right now and I've got some slight stretch. The tires are less than a year old so I really don't want to spend $700-800 right now on tires again. Crossing my fingers that it it'll all work out.

Right! I'd be okay if they could pull them some too...guess I'll see what happens Saturday. The front I'm really not too concerned with because I can camber in more if I need to. Here's my rear fitment right now...going with 1" spacers...

front fitment will be on point i think but the rear doesn't really need 1 inch. The rear will definitely be rolled, but you can always shim the rear and make it fit.

$130 a piece plus mount and balance...the set I have on now cost me about $700 installed granted that was with my alignment...so $550-600 I guess. I got a quote for 2 new rear tires if I went with a 9.5" rim and was quoted $400.

So I put the 1" spacers on the front and sent pics over the guy doing my fender roll. He's not sure if he'll be able to pull and roll it enough to work with my tires so I may be getting new ones. I'm running 18x8.5 with 225/40 right now...from what I'm reading I need to move into a 205/40 but I'm not finding **** for tires in that size. Any other tire sizes I should look at?

Pic looking down...

If i don't plan to stretch tire can i just run my current 18x8's with 235 40 18s and 20mm adapters and have it look decent? The offset of these are +40 i believe.
