But, it's only in the city ratings.

Yeah....now I actually get the manufacturers mileage claim.

Or do I seeing as how I own an 06?

Those rims are not rims at all. They are 16in steel wheels with a hubcap covering the wheel. I know this b/c they are the same wheels on my 2006 Malibu. Another bad move for chevy.

Interesting...it doesn't look like the usual steel wheel behind the hubcap?!?

I know, when we bought the Malibu we had no idea and even the dealership told us they were alloy. Based on looks I had no reason to doubt them, but when I washed the car for the first time it didn't take long to figure out when the cover moved while washing.

It is a LT so I'm pretty sure those are alloys...in any event I don't like them....the blacks lugs are ugly as well imo

And my luck it was on the back near the sidewall so they could not patch it, and my dealer could not get me a tire so I went onto Trierack.com and it arrived at my door 2 days later, went back to the dealer and they put it on for free
