i would take the p45f in black with a polished lip. I think 18x8 out front and the 18x8.5 in the back will do just fine!

Why would you want wider in the back, the car is already gonna push in the corners. You should go narrower in the back of a FWD car to try and balance the handling, although the Cobalt SS S/C is pretty close to neutral. Stick with the same size front and back, then you can still rotate the tires.

Hey Man I changed my mind if Kim can get a set of Sub Zero's silver with a polished lip, I will def buy for 650. I saw these on a RSX and it was really nice looking.

GR-A's look sweet

Come to think of it I like those GR-A's better then the Subzero, I googled a few pics of it here. I just can't decide which color I want now...... so how much for a set of GR-A's in 18x7.5?
