Dude! ~ that is a nice little header you made there!

Sorry for the interruption guys;
I am likely going ot be making a trip later this year to Winnipeg to visit family;
I am on the hunt for some spare wheels for my '09 Cobalt SS;
I would prefer to have stock wheels.

If anyone here has 08-10 Cobalt SS wheels they would be willing to sell, or if anyone here knows some one who has wheels that they would be willing to part with, please PM me.

I was born in Winnipeg, I lived there on two occasions (still have my two MB plates), half of my extended family and some of my friends live in Winnipeg - but since my Grandmother passed away (grandfather passed roughly 10 years prior) I don't come as often ~ So I figured I'd post up... just incase.
(I posted that so that none of you thought I was just some ***** who has no attachment to MB was here looking for parts)

Thanks for humoring this post!

is kijiji the one that's popular over there?

I'll immediatly look into this; any leads are sincerely appreciated.

EDIT:

well, looks like no dice this time around - found someone selling the continentals @ $700/set but no mention of the wheels.

if anyone here finds or has any for me, I can get my dad to pick them up - so there will be no huge wait for me to personally come down.

Anyone on here have the white TC with aftermarket rims at St. Vital mall? I have seen it a few times now parked in the same spot by the HMV. Has a low rise wing.

Summer tires and rims -check
allignment and service-check
oil change-check
k&n drop in-check
factory boost guage in psi-check
interior clean and summer floor mats-check
GMS1-check check.
Car wash, grime remover, carnuba wax, procrastinating to do so-check.



GMS1 installed today. Install went perfectly. Not sure how long it took them to actually install it since I was getting other stuff done but I never got asked any dumb questions about what size of pulley it came with or why there were no injectors in the box. Install looks clean (though my engine bay is not)
I got quoted and Charged two shop hours.
Been on the throttle all day and had no issues (knock in wood). Worth every penny! Gotta love 21psi and a smoother power band. Also seems smoother at idle than before. Time will tell.


This brings up the question (again), has anyone else got this done yet?
