It is possible to align the rear of a cobalt thats equipped specifically with drum brakes with full contact shims. HOWEVER when I did mine the alignment machine did not list a shim for the cobalts. What I did was because cavaliers are almost exactly the same as a cobalt I rest the machine to a cavalier and used cavalier full contact shims. I aligned mine almost a year ago so it is possible that a shim has been made specifically for the cobalt now. As for Evens tire before you go jumping down anyones throat its typical to do a 4 wheel alignment. That way they can advise you if there is anything odd looking. If they charged you extra money for an "adjustment" but didn't charge you for a full contact shim they are lying.
Keep in mind my car is an exception not the rule. I was looking for very specific numbers and made modifications to attain them.
