TESTING WATERS) TRADE: chrome 17" IRL's for..??
Hey guys,
So, I've got a set of 4 chrome 17" Ion Redline wheels on my Cobalt. Solid, used condition. I'm the 2nd owner of these wheels, and got them off of the guy with the IRL. Factory chrome. Eventhough they're pictured without center caps, I have 4 Chevy ones in them now. Looks OEM. There are tires on them also. Bridgestone Potenza G019 Grid's all around. Had them since summer. Still have tons of tread left. Have never had a problem with the wheels or tires. Finally completed the full s/c kit (waiting on another high-rise) and I'm concerned these will be a little too small looking with the spoiler and such? So that's why this is a testing waters thread. I am simply looking at offers to see what I can get.. I'm looking to get another set of full wheels and tires. Complete. Usable, daily-driver type condition, with tires of similar tread-life. All-season type tires are a plus, but not required. I'm not talking about a 3k dollar set of Volks here, but toss me some offers. Looking for factory 18" wheels or also aftermarkets. Not looking at anything tacky. Either OEM GM: s/c, t/c, HHR SS, Malibu LTZ, G6 GTP, etc or some kind of solid looking aftermarket wheels.. I'm looking to do this swap in person since my wheels are still on the car. I'm willing to drive a couple hours both ways, so we can work something out if the deal is right. So, post what you've got. Keep in mind that once I install my spoiler, I may like how everything looks. But post up and I'll keep everyone updated.
Thanks!
Picture from when I first got them. No caps them, but now have Chevy ones in.
Bump.

These IRL's were a hot commodity awhile back.. What happened? lol
Keep in mind guys, these are also quite a bit lighter than basically anything else out there comparable.. 17x7, +42 offset, and they DO clear the t/c Brembos..

That's the problem. I'mnot gonna sell these nice wheels and roll steelies. lol. That's why I was looking for a trade. Likely for some s/c gunmetals or something.. And no thanks on the n/a's.. already had those stock.. lol Already had gunmetals too, but it looked dumb with the 2.4 kit..

lol Touche.
Nah, just kidding. I did see the part about the s/c wheels. I don't have the 2.4 rear anymore, I have the full s/c body, minus wheels. I just got my spoiler on a few minutes ago (second high-rise), so lemme see it for a few days and see what I think the wheels look like..
