wheels? 17x7

gee wiz, i can't seem to find a nice chrome 17x7 to buy. i want something besides a 5 spoke design. it should not be this hard. if i can't find something as nice as the factory 17s then i'll keep what i have. btw i find many listed but when you call on them there not yey availible. i'm stumped. any ideas welcome.

yes it should be hard, buying wheels i think is the next biggest step after buying the car. take your time and get what you are sure of. alot of wheels can be custom drilled to fit the hhr. your best bet will prolly be to talk with an experienced wheel consultant that can sit with you and say yeah they can or no they wont work

Have you tried the vendors here?

I think Mike (SoCal) carries wheels, just not on his site. (could be wrong though)

truckshop.com has several styles for the HHR. They've got this in 17's. They'd look sweet on your black HHR!

17x7 wheels

i just don't think it should be hard to do. they should not list a wheel this really is not availible. and i have called and taked to many wheel advisors and they have not been much help so far. money is a factor but i'm not a cheapskate. i've been searching for month btw.

I found the wheels I want in the correct offset and bolt pattern but the only size I have found them in with the correct offset and bolt pattern is 18"x7.5". I have been wanting 20"s lately so I'm holding off for a while to see if I can find them elsewhere in 20". I know I'll hate myself if I buy the 18"s and then I find 20"s after. Finding the wheels you want for the HHR is a bit*h!
