Aftermarket Wheel Owners Post Your Setup
Trying to compile a list of aftermarket setups so a range of wheel sizes & offsets, tire widths, to reduce speedo error, avoid rubbing, maximize looks/performance, etc. Hopefully, to make a quality reference thread.
Stock information: ** SOMEONE PROVIDE THIS INFO FOR THE DIFFERENT MODELS ** ** Use tire calculator to find tire size closest to original overall diameter, afterwards check if desired tire model & size are available using The Tire Rack - Your performance experts for tires and wheels or equivalent site: http://gs.tolan-hoechst.com/tirecalc.htm Please fill in the following aftermarket information: Chevy Cobalt model: Wheel Make & Model: Wheel Size (diameter and width): Wheel Offset Front: Wheel Offset Rear: Tire Make and Model: Tire Size Front: Tire Size Rear: Suspension mods: Amount of drop: Description of wheel gap, fender flushness, rubbing, aesthetics, and other comments and problems if any (clear pictures to support description would help greatly): ** Post up pictures of your setup ** PM me with corrections if you discover errors

 Running these on a 2005 LS. Kosei K1 15x7 w/ 38-42mm offset(don't remember exactly) silver painted but soon to be custom Cardinal powdercoated black. They weigh in at around 14 lbs per wheel and are low pressure cast and shot peened for strength. I paid $105 a piece through tirerack when they were on closeout so I got a pretty good deal on them. My contis are bald as shit so I'm waiting until spring break so I can remove the old tires, bead blast the wheels, powdercoat them, and then mount the new tires. Car is also riding on Eibach prokit springs with the DC bar. Handling is pretty good, still a bit of a wheel gap but I don't care. The real problem is the tires, new ones are going on soon so I can see the light at the end of the crappy tire tunnel.
