Save your money and do it right the first time, instead. Don't be afraid to go low; I know Randy is in Florida but no car should/could be that low and static and get away with it in any part of the world. (He's not the lowest and most ridiculous car I've seen static, but a very relevant comparison).

If you 'bout that life, you'll make it happen.

That's a better response then your first lol. But that is a good point for sure I don't want to be messing things up so I do want to get it done right but I just thought I would ask my question here since I noticed a lot of the guys here have really nice lowered and stanced cobalts. For now though if I could just get the stock rims flush with the fenders that would be a good start for me. One day ill hope to be on some of the guys levels as of now I'm just admiring.

Yeah dont half ass anything. Do it right the first time where you are happy with it. For your spacers ive seen most guys go on 24mm adapters. They are a little bit safer than running just a mammoth spacer of that size. Make sure if you can get something hubcentric to help limit vibrations.

Alright that's good advice I didn't know that it would be unsafe I will look more into that.

I'm still having too much fun with breaking stuff on my car to even think about getting something else. Even though I definitely have my eyes set on a z06 next.
