smoothies

im thinking of putting 16 in smoothies on my hhr but im not sure i think it would look great with the white walls and lowerd but does any one think that a 16 will do a good job in the wheel well with a nice fat tire

I've got 16" on my lowered HHR CJ. If you go with the Gold-Line kit they fill the wheelwells nicely. You can run 215/55-16's or 225/50-16's no prob.

Hope it helps,

I'm sorry, but what's a smoothie? (I'm assuming that you're not talking about the drink!)

Just like any other rim there are a bunch of designs and different manufacturers.

IMO go with some open rims and stay away from white walls!

Also know as Moon Wheels or Baby Moons, Moonies, from 50's customs. Many times they have the white walls for that Retro Customized Look. Remember, too each his own and that is why they are called Customized Cars!!!
