What new rim options are people using with the 4 lug stock Cobalt LT? Looking for some thing nice without spending a lot of cash.

Kosei K1 Racing or the K1 TS are the 2 best wheels for the price, IMO. They are low pressure cast and shotpeened in a Toyota foundry so the quality is pretty good and for less than $150 a wheel, you can't beat them. My K1 Racing wheels are in for a refinish next week, 80% gloss powdercoat.
