So im thinkin of picking up some steelies for my SS/SC,

I was wondering whats a good size for steelies and a good set of tires for traction? I had kumho kw-17's last year on my saturn, they were alright, im looking for something with a bit more traction (since the car has nearly 100 hp more lol)

Also are the brakes larger on the ss/sc than the 2.2l cobalts?

And lastly, whats our bolt pattern and offset?

Thanks guys!

 

personally im just gonna get some 17" wheels with blizzaks, bolt pattern offset is 5x110mm

 

16's are as small as you can go with stock brakes on the SS/SC.

With the 5x110 bolt pattern Canadian Tire only carries the 16"...at least here that's it.

 

Not sure how much steel wheels are (I'd guess US$60 each?), but I bought a set of polished 17" wheels from a brand new HHR on ebay for US$185 for all 4.

The ultimate winter tire is the Bridgestone Blizzak, but they cost way too much and wear out fast as hell. There are other tires that are comparable to these that wear a little better and cost less.

The shop I worked at used the WinterForce tires a lot, and customers really seemed to like them, though I've never used them personally.

 

My buddy works at a shop and is going to get me a good deal so i just wanted all the specifics and didnt wanna go in there looking like a boob.

thanks guys!!!

im thinking kumho kw19's
