*Official* List of SS/TC Rims

So I'm building a list of rims that clear the Brembo's on the '08-'10 SS/TC. If there are any ones on here that are a verified fit, or something on that list that doesn't fit, let me know and I'll update it. Some wheels I've noted to fit 17", and I'd assume they'd also fit the 18", but I'm sure there's some exceptions.

I will not list wheels that fit with a spacer above 3-5mm...you can fit a lot of wheels on this car with spacers, but the point of this thread is to find wheels that fit without.

So Far:

FACTORY


05-07 Cobalt SS/NA (17") WITH 3mm SPACER (optional?)
08 Cobalt Sport (17") WITH 3mm SPACER (optional?)
Ion Redline (17")



AFTERMARKET

ASA AR7 (18") & (19").....Machined w/ Silver

Borbet LV5 (17").....Silver
Borbet Type CA (18").....Silver

BSA 264 (17") .....Silver

Core Racing Kobe (18").....Black w/ Machined


Drag DR-34 (17") (18").....Various Colors


Elbrus I05 (17")..... Best with 3mm spacer, very close fit Silver Machined

Enkei EKM3 (18") .....Bright Silver ..... Gun Metal
Enkei Performance AKP (18") & (20").....Black ..... Chrome
Enkei Performance G5 (18") .....Black/Machined
Enkei Performance LS-5 (18") .....Chrome
Enkei Performance LSF (18") & (20") .....Platinum Metallic
Enkei Performance RAZR (18") & (20").....Machined w/ Black

Fast Wheels Salsa (17") .....Silver
Fast Wheels Evolution (17")..... Chrome

Ikon Vision (18").....Silver

Maxxim Knight (17")(18").....Black/Polished Lip

MSR 045 (18") .....Silver..... White/Red Stripe.....Black/Machined Stripe..... Black/Red Stripe..... Hyper Gray
MSR 068 (17") .....Silver..... Black/Red Stripe

OZ Ultraleggera (18") .....Black..... Silver
OZ 35th Anniversary (18")..... Black w/Machined
OZ Borticelli (18") .....Silver
OZ Canova (18") .....Silver

Give me some time, I'll try to get around to pricing and where you can get them...details like that. If anyone adds a new wheel to the list, please add where you can buy it and what it cost. That will save me a bunch of time from searching.

I've read on a few posts that the '05 - '07 SS/SC 18" rims will fit with spacers. Problem is I've never seen proof and no one seems to know how big of a spacer you need...

Sticky-worthy if you get pictures of every rim in every color.

No offset has very little to do with fitment over the brembos.


The big problem is the way the spokes protrude from the hub of the wheel.

They basically have to come out and then back in at the very outer edge.

Ah okay. Think the Rennen RC2s would fit?

By that description, I would think they would.

It could probably fit but the tires would be sticking way out.

Hm, I suppose we'd have to see. On other balts it hasn't stuck out that far, but we'll see

not my thread but i really dont think it should turn into, "well these will fit with spacers" caz practically everything will fit with a big enough spacer.

just think we should leave out wheels that require spacers except for the factory rims listed (redline and ss/sc) since those are often for sale on here.
