will not clear the coilover with that high of an offset

 

damn, didn't even think about the coilovers. Spacers would help in that situation right?

 

spacer would work great. just make sure its hub and wheel centric. helps a lot.

stock lsj is +42

 

an 18x8 +45 will net you a 6.3" backspacing. so the wheel will sit .6" further in than a stock sc wheel. i don't know what the offset of the tc is, still 42? i know its a 7.5" wide

 

LNF stock wheel offset is +42 and it's 7.5 wide.

 

okay. so that would only bring the wheel in .4" instead of .6"

 

What about me?

 

Powells PF01's are the same specs, and hes running FE5 and pedders on an ION. He said he didnt rub in the thread he posted... Coils should give even more room. Unless the ION and Cobalt are that drastically different. It will be close though, but it should work. I would still get 5mm spacers to be safe.

 

not a cobalt.. go away!!

looking good though man

 

 

Okay I got 2 questions for you guys.

1, I did the Evo mod, keep or take off?



2, what wheels are these? Do they come in our bolt pattern?

 

Those wheels looks like XXR 527s

 

question for you guys. at what offset would the tc wheels sit flush or close to flush? i think i read that +35 is flush so i was thinking about doing 5mm spacers in the front and 8mm in the back with extended studs. am i in the right track or no? im not going for anything crazy i just want to get away from the train effect. any help is appreciated thanks guys

 

my wheels are 18x8 with 30mm offset and the rears sit pretty flush, so id say u would need an offset of like +27 for the tc wheels to sit flush cause they are 7.5" wide.

 

Anybody ever put these on a cobalt??

 

heres my car's quest for aggressive stance.

so far:
Stance GR+ Coilovers 2nd yr rocking them
Enkei PF01 17x7.5 4x100 +38 offset

gotta get the car lower, wider rims, bigger offset, proper tires, and skid plate, already smashed one oil pan.



also gotta adjust the camber so the tires are straight up and down, i go a 3-5degrees camber in the front from my Enkei ZR-2 18x8.5 +42 offset wheels so they wouldnt hit

 

is ur intercooler crooked?

 

Whoa! I just noticed that too?!?!

 

Anyone ever put xxr 527's on a SS before?

 

pretty sure thats what Jookycola is putting on his base model..

 

no the intercooler is straight the car is crooked:p

 

Really? You have to get them custom drilled?

 

not in 4x100^^

 

I was looking at their website they don't come in 5x110... So I'd have to get them custom drilled right?

 

yea you probly would, thats why its easier for a base model
