im not 100% sure on the drop, but you should be fine in the winter with the sportlines.

I dont like the star in the middle of the cap..

Offset is 45, the reason they're close is because it's not straight spokes they bend in.

I would make sure to rinse the salt off. I heard of people putting stuff on the threads so it wouldn't corrode, then they can wipe it off along with the salt and reapply every couple of weeks or so.

Yeah... maybe I'll get them PC'd gold this winter.

Although, I think black would look really good with the simple 5-spoke.

You can have coils in the winter. Its not going to hurt them unless you dont wash your car for the whole winter. I wouldnt worry about it

lolwut? I'm not exactly sure what this means.

Either way, the Cobalt sits in a garage under a cover during the winter. The VeeDub is the winter beater.
