Where's the tires!?! Lol. Are those 30 profiles on a 19"? I run a 35 profile on my 19"s w/ Sportlines and have no issues.....can't see why you'd want such a crazy small tire. But non-theless the wheels look good man.

Indeed they are, but then again, so are mine. I drove into a crater last night coming home from a 15 hour work day in DC last night on 66. My friend who was riding with me was fiddling with his phone and looked up and asked if I had hit a car when I hit the pothole, lol. You couldn't tell from riding in it as it still rides smooth, but once we got home and I got out to check it out......ouch.....the lip is waaayyy bent. So I have a new tire coming in for one of my other 19"s this week since I drove over a nail.......but now I got a bent wheel too. I think I'm gonna pull all the 19"s off when I get home from work today and throw the stock 17"s back on until I get it all sorted out. I have the worst luck EVER with wheels and tires. Gonna google search and see if I can find a wheel repair place that's near me to fix the bent wheel. If not, guess I'm gonna have to buy a new one, which isn't exactly cheap...... I'm really kinda regreting selling my 18"s......yeah the 19"s look 100 times sicker, and are a lot more flush, but damn they are proving to be pricey to maintain, esp considering my car is a daily driver and I drive on 66 every other day. Buuut, I already paid a good amount of $$$ for them so I'm gonna brush my self off and try again.......

I'm putting my stockers back on in about 30 min.

I think I can get the wheel repaired, and my tire should be in this week so the other wheel will be good to go too. But I gotta wait till pay day to get the wheel repaired, which isn't for another week. I'm contemplating selling the 19"s. Hmmm.....

Well in the month I've had them I've already got a nail in the right rear tire, had to replace the tire, and just the other day I bent the front right wheel and gotta get it repaired now. 66 is brutal for a 35 profile tire. I have no choice but to hang onto them.....I paid good money for them. So we'll see. For now though I'm back on the stockers.

I know how you feel bro im jealous of ppl with vettes cause the trailblazer ss took the place of a vette for me but you have to do what you have to do.
Well i think you will be very pleased with the trailblazer ss and silver is very nice color on one i wish i had a silver one. Ohhh and the corsa exhaust is a must i love it. And the Kb coilovers ride so good you would never think it was lowered 1.5 inch riding in it.
Im jealous of were you live lol its nice down there. I think it has been hotter up here that it has down there in fl.

Remedy, if I wasn't into just speed I'd have your wheels because they are the sweetest wheels I've seen yet on a Cobalt. I love that dish and the way the car squats.

Sweet!! I'll give you guys a call to see how it's going. Been busy lately. Very busy with the Cobalt and other stuff.
If Jonathan has been trying to call me, let him know that my phone isn't working right. I'll keep in touch.
