Thanks everyone, I really appreciate it. I saw this thread a couple years ago and I always told myself "I wish I could get nice fitment on my cobalt" and I think I am getting there finally lol. The car gets a TON of hate on the cobaltss page on facebook its pretty funny.

 

I was on there talking **** to that guy. Some people just have no respect man. I too used to look at this thread wishing i could post pics of my car. Now i do haha

 

i agree man, we all do things different. I don't mind the hate honestly I'm use to it but we can't all have the same car for the same intended reasons, what fun would that be? lol

 

anyone running randy coils that is f23 manual tranny?

 

I think the guy above you is

 

So many stance people now lol. Glad to see we've grown.

 

time to channel the experts. HHR SS here. will be getting a set of randy coils soon as my b&gs arent cutting it anymore.

i bought 20mm 5x114 adapters off someone on here quite some time back.

what are the offset / width options Im looking at to get a good stance(nothing crazy. just even-sitting at the fenders)

thanks guys. ideally i would like to get a set of detroit steel wheels. but am going to look around for quality used wheels once my coils are on

 

Youll need something with a stupid high offset around +50 because of the adapters

 

thats what im thinking. not many GOOD options at that point. hell. looking at mostly oem wheels then...

i saw some nt03 35+ all around for a good deal id love to try but have a feeling itd be way too much... then again the HHR fenders seem to be much wider then the cobalts... let me look it up

 

35-20 gets ya +15 offset, youll be beyond the flush look you want and probably wont look good without going lowered than you desire.

either run some custom drilled wheels to 5x110, redrill the hubs/rotors or run a spacer/adapter which wont be much smaller than the 20mm which i think custom 18mm is the smallest youll get

u have options, check out other fellow hhr guys that are into the scene to see what they have experienced with fitment

 

Get some 18x10 +10 all the way around. It'll equal out to about -20mm, and run like -9 degrees of camber. You can do it!

 

there is only one.. and hes not an SS he is on here. hes only had his one set of wheels on there. ill have to double look.


but honestly. i dont want to spend crazy money on it because id rather buy more go fast parts or just get some street slicks lol....

i really like the g37 19s. not sure on the offset but cant imagine its much being oem....

i got the spacers for 125 bucks hubcentric nice ones. once it hits spring i can try a couple of my friends wheels on just to check for some clearences to be sure. love your car btw.

 

hahah... i ideally want to get detroit steel wheels... im not ready to order them yet and havent checked what offsets they do offer. that will be my final wheel and look but until i do order them i got the spacers last year to try some things this spring. unfortunately the steels dont come in 5x110 thats why i originally got the 5x114 adapters




ARK R8 wheel 18x8 et 35 5x114.3

so something like that wouldnt fit ok. fack.

cheap price... no offset but looking it up they all seem at least 40.. im going to email him.

 

G37 wheels have a pretty high offset. Im sure you can look up what it is.

 

offset is 40 on those OZs i posted. what do u guys think???

 

Whats the width of the wheel

 

they dont look wide at all from the photos

So crisp

 

thanks good sir

 

I like that.

 

 

18x7.5 that seems pretty slim

 

yea thats a poo size haha

tc wheels are that wide

 

WTF are randy coils?

 

they're basically modified BC coils. they go pretty damn low
