wheels

well im looking to get some new wheels for my car, i have a blue 4door, and i cant really decide which size wheel to get. should i get 16, 17, or 18 inch wheels? plus im going to attempt to post pics of wheels on here and see everyones opinion.











these are the 5 im thinking of right now. there is a local rim shop around here im going to check out as well. but im not sure if they will have anything i like.

i would also like to know a place to get halo lights. cause from what i understand ebay isnt the best of places to buy them from.

i actually like them all except the first one--a bit ricey. anyways, depends on what you are looking for...if you want less wheel gap, go with 18. if you want better handling and less rotational mass, go with 17

Do all those rims shown fit our 5x110 bolt pattern or is your 4door a differant bolt pattern than the ss/sc? If so where did you find those wheels at. Looks like the first one is light weight. I'm looking for a black light weight wheel with a nice lip in chrome or polished. Thanks for your time. As for looks, the second one down looks hot!

I'm assuming 4X100's as the bolt pattern. #4 and #5 are motegi's if I'm not mistaken, I'm getting Motegi Tracklights, 17x7, flat black, 14 lbs. each. Thats what I'd recommend

those motegi's are sexy damn....the site i got those from is tiresdelivered.com and yea 4X100 is the bolt pattern...even though some pictures show 5

see i would like either black or gun metal, which color between the 2 would look better on a blue balt...i really like the black with a silver lip too....ahh choices

I'm actually planning on getting the 2nd ones you posted here come spring.

They are all a good choice IMO.

I'm going to go with 17's. I think that 18's will look nice, but they cost more. 16's aren't worth it since the car starts on 15's and the difference isn't that big.

The first 2 would look sweet on a Cobalt. Make sure you have dark tint to match the black wheels, or powder coat the black part to match the car color. That would look amazing.
