There is my car.. I need help WITH deciding on some things

I want wheel suggestions .. i would like to spend the least i can
cause i spent alot of my money just to get this car. i love the HHR
just cant afford alot right now.. so does anyone roll with just the
stock steelies and no hub caps? or should i paint the steelies or hubs?

I want pinstripe/decal suggestions... i have seen some do a decal kit on
bottom of doors with "hhr" in it, and ive seen racing stripes, and seen pin
stripeing .. i need suggestions and pictures if yall can..

Also need suggestions and pictures of ya'lls grills!!
i want to either black mine out or 3 bar style..
pictures please ...


THANK you in advace if ya'll can help some.
Im new to the HHR world, but i love this car. its awesome.
So please help a fellow member out so that i can ride w/ pride.

PICTURES of suggestions would be helpful. thanks

-Paul

Paul - best place to go for budget rims for the HHR is The Tire Rack if you are keeping the stock tires...some good choices for less than 100 dollars each. I always get compliments on my rims - there are a couple of lousy pictures in the gallery if you care to look. My '07 LS has 16" rims and is not lowered.

take a look in the PICTURE AND MEDIA forums at other black HHR's to get an idea of what look you want....that will help narrow down wheel choices.

https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/picture-media-11/official-black-hhr-post-pix-only-4375/


wheel/rim decisions are like muffler decisions...you often never know the end result, until it is paid for an installed. Once that happens you either love it, or live with it.


I'm sure you'll get plenty of answers as to where to shop...but making the ultimate decision is up to you.

I think Chadpuska's black HHR(last month's HHR of the month) has a stellar wheel choice. Coupled with the lowering springs, it really helps set his car apart.

https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/featured-hhr-submissions-43/chadpuskas-may-2008-featured-hhr-14715/

of course, all of the above, are MY opinion. You know what they say about those


now it might be my monitor, but your car looks black, with reflections of blue sky...
