Motegi Traklite or LC5 in 5x110

I have had enough interest from various 5x110 vehicle owners (Cobalt, Ion, HHR, Saab, G6, Malibu, Etc.) to pursue building a run of 5x110 Motegi Lightweight wheels. The options are TrakLite, TrakLite 2, OR LC5. You can view these wheels at the Motegi website at www.motegiracing.com.

If enough people want one style and size, we will continue to pursue the project. I will be posting this Poll on other vehicle forums to generate wider interest, and combining the results. Once we feel the interest is there, we will post a discounted Pre-Purchase to get the ball rolling. It will take approximately 10-12 weeks to get the wheels here and ready to ship.

Thank you for your time and interest. We look forward to continuing our support of your vehicle!

Gravana

I'd be interested in a set of TRAKLITE Gun Metal Machined Lip 5x110 17x8" 42mm offset AND a set of the same rim 5x100 17x8 35mm offset for my SRT-4 to clear the big brakes I have

I have talked to Dazz before and they are willing to drill pretty much any 19" single piece wheel you want.

True, and we are a Dazz Distributor. However, most of the 19s that Dazz imports, for which we get requests, are $2-3k for a set of four wheels. So far, we have only had a handful of Cobalt owners order Rays, Volk, Etc. But we do order them!

Just put in my vote for the TrackLite's, gunmetal with the polished lip. They just look sexy as hell.

I wouldn't use this pole as your only basis for interest in getting some nice wheels out there for Cobalt SS owners to get their hands on. I would definately be interested getting some nice forged light weight wheels for my car and I'm sure that there are plenty of other owners on here that are looking for the same. Not everyone votes on the poles...

Just my .02

Later,
Vince.
