sister wheels? g6 sky solstice

was wondering if anyone had upgraded to any of the company wheels on their cobalt to increase their surface area. I was thinking, in a year or two i will need larger wheels (mostly wider) and the custom rims out on the market nowadays doesnt do it for me. plus, buying a slightly used set would be pretty reasonable.
anyone tried g6 gt wheels on their cobalt?

It is the same bolt pattern , but its 55 mm offset sticks the wheel to far in . You could use a bolt on wheel adapters to make up the difference though I dont believe in them . A 8" wheel on a Cobalt looks the best and has the best functionality between 35 and 45 mm offset .

From a couple posts up .....the chevy caps from the 18" SS wheel snap directly into the 18" G6 GTP wheel .
