New Wheels

[Scott Geyer]

I’m thinking about buying some new wheels. Want 17x9.5 on all four wheels. Have 5x114.3 hubs. Anybody have that size? If so, what make and model?

Take a look at konig flow formed series. They are pretty light weight as well.

Any idea what back space is needed?

I like the Konig Tandems. They have 17.9-15mm. Does anybody know if these would fit?

I used this site (https://www.willtheyfit.com/) to see if they would fit. Plug in the specs of the stock cobalt and your wants and see how they compare.

My wheels are 17x9 with +35 offset. Tires are 255-40/17. I have a 1” spacer/adapter to get them to 5x114.3 (a lot more choices in this size).

in the front I did install the steering limiter. The tires BARELY cleared the control arms. In the back theres only 1.5” from the wheel to the coilover.
