Question about Cobalt SS's

Looking in to buying one of these, joined to ask you guys a question before I make myself look like an idiot at the dealer. Can the NON Supercharged SS be ordered with the Supercharged SS high rise wing? What about the wheels?


Thanks for answers

Yes you can get the SS wheels on the NON supercharged cobalt...as for the wing, I think you will have to go online and find one, try Ebay.

Uh, no you can't.

No on both questions. You would have to puchase those yourself afterwards, but I bet the dealer would be happy to install them for you.

Only the little deck ones are available on Ebay, I dont see why the dealer cant rip off the stock one and throw on the high rise one. This way I dont have to hassle with finding one, mounting it and painting it.

No you didn't. You saw the 17" version of the SS/SC 18" wheel. They look very alike.

You can order one from the parts guys at the dealer...it will be expensive though just to warn you.

If you want to get the wheels and the wing, why not just go for the glory and get the Wheels, Wing, Supercharger combo pack?

Another question, are the ride heights on the SC SS and N/A SS the same? The SC SS always looks lower to me...

Yes, they have different suspensions. I don't know if the ride height is any different, but the wheels are different sizes, which could be the reason why it looks lower.

I'm pretty sure you can get the 2006 SS Non S/C looking just like the S/C because I saw one at my dealer just the same accept no S/C.

You can because GM accessories sells the SS/SC wing( painted ) , front chin spoiler , the 18" wheels , the rear valance ect ect . You just cant get any of that , or order any of it from the factory . It all has to be after the fact .

It will probably be cheaper to just get the real deal.

Sorry, missed this post. The S/C looks lower because it has valence extensions.

If you dont mind me asking, what did you pay for the car in the end? What you have is exactly what I want. 2.4 SS with SS/SC Wing and Body Kit. 2.4 SS wheels I can live with..

They are the same design, except the 2.4 is chrome.
