Depends how low you are, or if you want a meaty fitment. If you are low I'd stick with 225s.

Ive been looking at the str 601's as well. Very nice wheel for cheap

And the fact my tires will fit makes it better

Is anyone running the STRs? I checked their website and don't see a 5x110 listed but Ventura Motorsports lists them if you do a search for 5x110 bbs lm reps.

Oh ive wanted them ever since I seen them on Bspeed's car and that was way before you posted them lol

But the problem was I couldn't find them in the 110 until you posted or whoever posted that ventura motorports website.

LOL ive been eyeing them for quite a while... theres 2 balts ive seen on instagram that are rocking them already. We can both rock them

BTW I was looking at the silver combo fyi so no worries.

And don't be like some of the cobalt owners in this thread that get butthurt when someone else has the same wheels as them

I would rock them for my winter setup. Call me crazy, but I really like the design & fitment of my stockers (prob the only reason I haven't gotten aftermarket yet)

I don't see having to raise the car on 225s, maybe a fender roll with the 235s but that's about it. It's not that aggressive, it will fit.

you wont need the 1in adapters anymore.




18x8+42 with (5mm spacers on front, no sure if in pic) 235/40 tires on ksports. rear ring spun all the way down.

so 18x8.5 with 225/40. little to no stretch. the +30 will put your wheels out so just get the fenders rolled. u or someone said they did

for my current setup all i did was raise the rear 1inch and call it a day. tires too beefy

I've narrowed down my choices to one of these. Keep in mind I'm in a silver hhr on kports sitting as low as it will go (ksports installing Saturday morning)...

Rather than make a new thread, anyone have any good ideas on what color to powder coat a set of PF01's, If I can't come up with anything I'll probably just go with silver. I have a victory red cobalt.

matte black with flake


if u guys posting fitment questions could do me a big favor;

just include all the info all the times (wheel size, tire size, coilovers, type of car)

there was like 3 people asking about the same setups i dont even know who im talking to anymore

if ur wondering about fitment and its not 9.5 and wider... the answers are yes it fits with little to no hesitation ^_^

/thread

Hmmm, maybe a gold or a grey. Having trouble thinking what matte black with flake would look like but honestly I'd like to stay away from a black.
