I have to say, they look pretty good. I won't be selling my PF01s for them any time soon though. Did they list a weight? Do they only come in black?

Saw these last month on tire rack.

Love them. If I didnt already have brand new EDR9's, these would be my wheels.

Yeah, just with wider spokes. Kind of like how the C6 Z06 started out with narrow spokes (PF01) and evolved into wide spokes (M52).

Somebody needs to buy these and put them on so we can see what they look like on a cobalt

Well they aren't made in Japan like the PF01s, and they aren't listed as a Racing wheel, but rather a Performance wheel, so I'm going to guess they aren't going to weigh as little as the PF01s do. It's probably just a cast wheel instead of a cast then drawn like the PF01s so that would explain the much lower cost too. All in all, I'm sure they are going to be great wheels.

I'm willing to bet they weigh between 22-24lbs.
