Nope... just been working on it for like 5 months now... i lost my job, so i cant afford to just take it to a body shop (one quoted me $5,000 minumum) . So i did all the work myself. No one has touched that car but me since i bought it all smashed up like you saw on my cardoamin page.

So yeah, it is not perfect, yet... suprized no one noticed that the side skirt is missing on the passenger side... or that the front bumper on the passenger side is a different shade of black (still primered)... But of course your gotta point out the missing center caps and tape on the lip... sheesh.... no appreciation! :-(

ok sorry to thread-jack... back to your regularly scheduled black cobalt pics...

a lil bit different than the stock 225/40/18's... them are some big and knobby suckers... but man they rule the snow.

You're running those rims with no spacers or anything? I was looking into buying them for winter rims but I was told they wouldn't fit.

It is a work in progress... and has come a long freaking way from this....

Nope... i am running those rims with a set of spacers i bought at a local Advanced Auto Parts. They are a lil thicker than i would have liked... i would be more comfortable if a had a few more threads inside my lugnuts... but it works for now till i can locate some thinner ones.
But yes, SS SC rims 100% fit on a SS TC.. as long as you space them out enough to clear the calipers. it doesnt take much at all... it is a very close fit... and remember the brembos are "fixed calipers" only the pistons inside move... the caliper doesnt slide like on other cars. so you just need to make sure the wheel wont rub and your golden (but allow for a lil bit of give for wheel/hub flex)
