Winter Wheels/tires

I have a set of Cadillac Catera Rims with Firestone Winterforce tires that I am looking to sell. I no longer have my cobalt, so they are useless to me. The rims are 16" and should fit the 05-07 Cobalt SS. You may have to grind down the front calipers slightly to avoid rubbing. The tires were only used for one winter season with about 4k miles. The tires are 215/60/16.

$400 obo

Prefer local pickup. I'm willing to meet halfway for a reasonable distance. I will ship them if necessary but you buyer pays all shipping cost.

Located in Pittsburgh, PA

How much grinding are we talking about? I'm in Cleveland. Any pics on the car?

Very minimal grinding. A millimeter or two just to be safe. I believe on the one wheel, I was able to spin the wheel all the way around and it was just barely touching. The other one had a small fraction of space. I grinded both front calipers down a bit just to leave some room for expansion when things were hot.

I don't think I have any pictures of them on the car and I no longer have the cobalt. Let me see what I can find.
