Nice Rim/Tire Combo!

Now just a set of lowering springs and you'll be all set!

Welcome

Welcome to the site! I would start off by lowering it, that is a must with rims....
Next is up to you....are you looking more for perfomance or looks??

Browse the "how to" section, theres something in there about shaving your emblems, it is VERY easy to do...... I was kinda scared at first but after reading it, I tried it out and it was EASY! I also painted my headlight housings black, also pretty easy but requires abit of time to do a good job....and lots more "how to"s check it out.....

umm my buddy lowered his cobalt 2" in the back and 1.5" in the front. i personally would go with the eibach pro kit setup. i heard a lot of guys like them. cobalt addiction does sell them. only thing is yeah warranty wise. that is gonna void it if u have problems. only way to to be uninstall it and re put ur stockers back in. but like i said those havent had any problems. searh on the forums.
