Nope. Someone learned the hard way. He bought them and they didn't clear the Brembo's.

If you need anything more than a 3mm spacer, it would be wise to install longer studs. Your lug nuts aren't grabbing much thread and a hard corner might stretch the studs.

I found some that are 18x8 5x100 with 35 or 45 offset. Wouldn't that be okay?

You could probably use a torch, duct tape, and prayer....





or you could do just like GM Performance group did with their race cars and just swap on older N-body hubs.

For those who are unaware:
Cobalt SS = 5x110
GM compact FWD <2004 = 5x100
GM midsized FWD = 5x115

If you use tire rack, and the wheels don't come up for 2008-2010 CSS's, just try changing to another year Cobalt SS - or G5-GT;
then you know they will bolt up - what you won't know is if they will clear the Brembo calipers.

I really like these wheels. I think they would look great on my sedan. How was the fit on the lugs? Being that its a different bolt pattern it didn't seem like it was in a bind or anything? I found these wheel for under $400 shipped. My only hesitation is the fact that they are 5x112.
