Haha, yeh, these wheels are from his SS, and the tires from his Panel. I love them. They stick amazingly, even with the siping that discount tire did, but, they make the tires not completely suck in the wet. Still not awesome, but not terrible. I have a little over 5k on them, plus what SSFan did. I will not be running these in winter, that's what my Saab wheels are for.

Well, the appointment wasn't until tomorrow, but after about 2 hours, the dealership called to tell me that the ignition and steering box had been replaced.

Left the daily driver '06 at the airport in Charlotte, now I'm in Pittsburgh for the night. Enterprise has long since retired their HHR's up here, so I'm stuck with a Chevy Spark.

Honestly I'm impressed with the "Half a Chevy", despite its shoe box sized engine, korean made tires, and looking like a pregnant Smart Car...it isn't half bad to drive. If I lived in a large city and needed "four wheels and a motor", I'd consider one, but not in the Tree Frog Green that this beast is painted....blech!

just another day of rest and relaxation, the wife took the HHR again!! I'm worried cause when she came home last night she had a grin from ear to ear , and the stereo was cranked up. Seems she is enjoying the HHR a bit to much!! Most likely I'm just bored from not having driven it since July 14th!!!

She's looking out for you and your HHR Oldblue, you've got a great lady there.

My wife surprises me with things like washing and detailng our 2011 LT, it's "hers" for the most part anyway, her Fiat 500C is cute...but very hard to install a childseat in. OK, it's more of a test of wills between you, the childseat, and the little Italian buggy...usually the car wins.

Had a visit from Fox Hat yesterday, he stopped by after the nationals , today I'm going out for a ride in the HHR, to Fort Erie and along the Niagara River Parkway for a restful picnic.
