Foose does make them to fit the HHR. I was looking at them, but decided to go with this instead:



Reasons?

1) The Nitrous only comes in 8.5-inch width in 17 & 18 - too wide for me.

2) Every new Mustang on the road has torque thrust wheels now it seems.
In a very short time, your "cool and unique" wheels will be passe'.

You can get the Foose's to fit the HHR - but have them checked for clearance with the proper tire you'll be running before you commit to buy.

They might...be sure to have them test fit before purchasing!
If there's not enough offset, you could have some rubbing...

I wasn't going to stay with 16's - therfore the 8.5's (in 17 & 18 sizes), were wider than I wanted.

Oldschool, check out erf2u photos in the gallery. I believe he has 18X8 or 8.5. He is not lowered, though.

The factory rims are actually 6.5-inches wide.

If you're lowered, there is a pretty good chance that you're going to rub with most anything other than stock.
