Cobalt 4x100 hub bore is 57.1mm.

Spacers accelerate bearing wear and put additional stress on hub.

I've been doing research, IonFeright is right on the spacer size. I think 15-20mm spacers would be perfect.

Eibach makes some pretty reputable looking spacers...just need to find out if they make any for our bolt pattern

The eibachs were the only spacers I found for your wheels. Does it look like the tires are going to rub your fender?

not really...I mean they rub on full turns at my current ride height but I can always adjust my height to make things fit.

it just looks way better when the wheels aren't so far tucked in...

Most here are too cheap to buy the custom offset rims they'd need.
