As promised, I would post the pictures of my new rims when I got the tires put on, so here it is.

They are MST brand, blacked-out chrome, 18", bought for $200 brand new at a car show

Went on my silver 2006 Cobalt LT

 

Lowering is a must. Wheels look good though.

 

I no doubt want to lower it, might just be a problem because of the shitty-ness of the roads where I live in PA

 

even with sportlines on a base model you will be ok. Wheels look good !

 

My sportlines work great. Got a couple shitty roads around here, you just gotta take it easy.

 

Look good!

 

I know what you mean with the Shitty-ness. I'm on Sportlines. I've gotten use to it, you should be fine.

 

I like em, I think I'd like em more if the lugs weren't covered, the centers seem to flat and nothing going on

and get CM springs, It doesn't even feel like I lowered my car when I'm driving around

 

Looks good! Needs 4x4 suspension removal

 

My mom has a same year, same model cobalt, il take a pic right now next to it and loadf it so you can all see the difference

 

Looks good man! It's nice to see more base models on here

 

Heres the comparison pics.. not really that much of a difference to me.. we both have 06 LTs with stock suspension.. my mom has the 16" stock rims

 

so which one is your cobalt lol...get the eibach pro kit. i will lower but not too much of grab a full FE5 swap springs, struts and shocks you will be surprised on the ride quality

 

Mine is the silver one with 18s.. my moms is yellow and stock 16s

 

i live in berwick which is less than an hour from scranton. and im in wilkes barre all the time and have no problem being lowered on sportlines. you will be fine, now lower it!!

 

what are the specs on these wheels? and what size tires?

 

lower it and then post some pictures

 

that is the same exact cobalt that I had, minus the sun roof!

 

you and about 8 million other people

 

Sorry it took so long for pics.. but i've lowered my car on the Eibach Pro-kit.. i'm actually pretty disappointed with them, but it did get rid of SOME wheel gap

pics are coming up in about 5

 

Dont mind how dirty the rims are.. its been raining for days now

 

Oh and dont mind how the taillights look.. long story short I used too much VHT, got pulled over, nothing is taking it off, not even paint thinner or brake cleaner.. New tails are pre-tinted and will be on tomorrow

also in other pics, yes behind pikachu is a set of train horns.. and yes i enjoy having pink brakes

 

Haha pokemon

 

where in scranton are you?

 

yeah, not that im into pokemon, but its just funny to see little kids freak out when they see one hanging from the back of my car
