I, too, want the retro look. Now picture the flag mirrors removed and replaced with little round ones ala the 40s and 50s. Huh? I am onto something there, huh? How about freestanding chrome bumpers? nah...... that is asking too much....... but my mirror idea is a good one! My 225/55 Blizzaks were just delivered Hopefully they will fit no problem. I will not mount them until almost snow time. Thnx again to the forum member that caught Tire Rack with the big sale. $60 each is a steal!

I think it looks great!! (a little biased, tho)

Danko 07-11-2008 08:07 PM

I am biased, too. I think the AA5 option helps the look bigtime! Our HHR was bought because my wife's bad knees and recent and future foot surgerys have made her "shiftless" so that driving one of our Ram SRT-10s is no longer possible for her. But I am also getting the bug for an '09 AA5 SS in Silver Ice with the perf option. Too bad the resale on my trucks has dropped so far. Getting rid of one would make sense but I will just have to keep driving one and I do enjoy that. Maybe in another year or two I will also have an HHR.........

OK, I'm in
 
Just what I'm looking for...baby moons for the stock steelies.

Also noticed that http://wheelvintiques.com lists a " 5019 Chevy Cap for HHR"

http://wheelvintiques.com/shopsite_s...media/5019.jpg

And it says "its: HHR Wheels" instead of fits Smoothie or Ralley like the other caps. Wonder if this is a baby/center cap or if it's a full wheel cap?

If someone ever gets a set of these Mr. Gasket caps PLEASE! post a pic. I'm sure a ton of us have waited for someone to make some. Thanks

No need to put screws into your rims...spring clips all the way around the discs hold them on perfectly.

Sadly, this is a no-go. Even though it says "Fits: HHR Wheels"...that means fits HHR smoothies or HHR Ralleys.

Guess we need to hope that the other ones fit...
