I finally put my new wheels on my Balt today. They are ADR Propulsion 18"x8" with Nexen N7000 235/40/18 tires. I got them about a month ago, but UPS damaged one of the wheels. I still don't have a replacement. I was waiting to see if they were going to send me a wheel with a tire mounted and take the damaged wheel and tire back, but they don't have any more of those tires in stock and I'm sick of waiting. I told them to ship the wheel and I'll look after it. The whole package only cost me about $1300 including tuner lugs, hub centric rings, shipping and customs. I'm really happy with them. They are balanced well and the ride quality is better than with my stockers. I'm not sure if it's because they weigh more (about 47lbs compared to 43lbs stock), or because of the wider tires. Pics don't really do them justice. My car needs a good scrub and the tires need some Armour All tire gel, but here they are:

wow, those are some crazy ass rims, you have any close ups of those?
i like em

Thanks guys. I wasn't sure if I would like them once they were on the car, but I was pleasantly surprised. The way the light shines off the spokes is very impressive. I took the pics about an hour before dusk, so the lighting wasn't great. I didn't want to post this close up because my car is so dirty and the tire still has soap on it from when it was mounted, but here it is anyway. lol

sorry not a fan but hey they are better than stock

I like them because it makes my Balt different than anyone elses. The price was pretty sweet. These cost me about $1250 and I sold my stockers for $760 and 2 tires were almost shot. The 235's are a lot harder to break loose than the 215's, which is a good thing in IMO.

not bad the rims im gettin are comin with nexen n5000.. hows the n7000s ride?

Bumpin Balt

The N7000's are really quiet and the ride is pretty plush.

How do you guys get your sig pics so big and still stay under the 19.5KB limit? My puny pic is 19KB! WTF?

i gotta start doing my homework on wheels. i've always loved falkens but i think i'm gonna go in a different direction this time

Bumpin Balt

I've heard good things about the Azenis 615's.

Frankruffolo257

i got new wheels too,

GULLABLE0NE

are the azenis summer tires? i wanna go for good all-seasons since i'm not doing much buzzing around in the Legacy. i feel very "grown up" cruising in my sport/lxury sedan.. lmao

i like how you say you got new wheels and sneak some engine pics in there!!!

i like the wheels though.

Bumpin Balt

Yup, summer performance. My N7000's are actually all-season performance tires. I have snows though.

Nice wheels Frankruffalo257, but this is a Cobalt forum! Oh and thread jack much? lol

cobaltmatt23

i see those on ebay all the time, i dont really care for em...and black rims only look good on 3 maybe 4 colors of cars, blue is not one of them IMO

More pics after a good cleaning... And another popular form of local transportation! lol
