Pic request!

I have the eibach pro kit on my cobalt i was wondering if anybody had this setup with 17 or 18 inch wheels i am debating on what size wheels to go with this drop. I got factory 16 on it right now, but i wanted to see if doing that will help close in the rest of my fender gap. Or if im just going to have to buy sportlines and and then do rims.

I think u should put the wheels on first to see how much of a gap u got ,. . . then chose what drop u want.. the pro kit wont drop you much.. i just got some 18's for my LS ( 215/35-r18) . . i was lookin at D2 lowering springs . . 2inch both front and rear... let me know what u go with..

Honestly if drop was what you wanted you should have gotten the sportlines. The pro kit is mainly for a slight handling difference.

I'll tell you what, if you find that you don't like the drop of the Pro Kit with whatever wheels you decide on, I'll sell you my Sportlines that I'll be removing from my car in the next month.

I went with Pedders because I want better handling for my 2nd job (driving my car around city streets all evening doesn't feel good with Sportlines on...they're great for looks and cruising, but that's about it).

Not sure if this will help but it should give you a slight idea. This is my 08 SS/TC with 18" MSR 045s lowered with Eibach Pro-Kit. Good luck!

Thanks! They are MSR 045's. I purchased them and the Eibach Pro-Kit from a vendor on here, more specifically jasonaudio. See this Thread https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/supporting-vendor-deals-group-purchases-133/msr-17-18-19-wheel-sale-end-summer-special-184125/. I believe the Wheels alone were about $540 including shipping, lugs, and hub rings. I highly recommend jasonaudio!!!

I got my MSR 045's from him for almost $100 less, but I live in MN and was able to pick them up from him so no shipping...but I can't afford the tires still and it's been close to a year now. ::SAD FACE::
