Looking for a set of winter wheels for my Cobalt SS… The Saab/BBS’s fit, and many of them are 5x110… I need them to be 16’s… But post if you’ve got 17’s/18’s too because if I like them, I might use them in place of my Enekis… I really want some flat-blacked BBS’s… Tires would be a plus, but not necessary… Lemme know what you’ve got…
I have some 17 inch Saab 9-3 Linear “launch package” wheels that I would consider parting ways with if the price is right. They are 5x110, with hancook ventus tires that have a ton of tread left.
Would you be interested in a trade for those Saab wheels? I have a set of 4 Enkei FN-18’s, 18 inchers if you want to go straight up? They’re in 98% condition, gunmetal spokes and polished lip… Pirelli P-Zero Nero MS’s with 75% tread… The pics are in a thread on the classifieds here… I’d be down if you wanted to trade…
And wrong on the 17’s… The SS n/a and SS s/c can go 16… The new SS t/c, however, can only go to 17’s because of the Brembos…
16’s work on the SS s/c and the SS n/a that have standard calipers. But you cannot go lower on the SS t/c because of the Brembo’s. Many people use the stock SS n/a wheels because they bolt directly on without spacers.
I can’t wait to get these wheels. I will probably re-do the black come spring. Sandblast and powder coat so they last through the winters…
There’s alot of Cobalt guys who use Saab wheels for winter… I’m gonna try them for a season and see how it works out… If it doesn’t work out, I’ll move to plan-b… But I appreciate the suggestion…
