Here's a great idea

Did you know that the 2010 Malibu shares the same bolt pattern as the HHR you currently own. That's right,
5 on 110 MM. That should have some of you thinking and your wheels are turning. The stock wheel is a 17" Black steel wheel. This would be great for winter wheels. They could be an excellent change for those that like the blacked out look and if not they could easily be painted to match you car. One could even add the look of a stainless steel trim ring.
Many possibilities here. And lastly they could be had for a song either at a salvage yard or perhaps on ebay. And don't even consider the stealership because everything they have is worth millions, unless of course you wanting to sell it to them and then it is deemed worthless.

They kinda expensive to get though. My wifes G6 has the same steel wheels and I had to replace one of them cause it got bent, and none of the area scrap yards had any, ended up having to order from dealership and it cost me $165 for just the one wheel.

I think those wheels come standard in 16" on 2008+ HHR LT.
And I believe the 17"s will fit over the brembos for you SS guys.
