I stumbled into being an HHR owner...
Ive been shopping for cars lately, and the HHR wasn’t even close to my radar.... Then I found this 2008 HHR LT with only 26,000 miles on it for $5000! I test drove it, liked it, offered him $4600, and now I own it ! It is darn near brand new!
I need to get new tires for it, these have a reasonable amount of life left, but I’d like to get something better. I am thinking Cooper CS5 ultra touring, but could be swayed if you think there’s something better for it. Also considering doing some mods to the car overall. Appearance and functionality/performance perhaps.
So far I like the car, hopefully I will grow to love it !
anyway, I thought I would say hello!

Sweet looking ride.
Personally I'm a Goodyear man and currently running Eagle GT's
Tires, it seems are personal preference.
As far as mods go, they can be never ending. At least for me as I always find something else I would like to do.
They best part is that all mods are relatively easy and you can find alot of 'how to' threads here.

thanks, I’ll check out the GT’s !
in tires, I definitely want low road noise and long wear. I live in Austin TX, so no worries about snow... just has to be good in dry and occasional wet weather. :)
I’ve been digging in to the “how to” and “mods” threads ... some cool stuff !!!

thanks for the reply !
I was looking at the zeons as well.... was wondering if they were worth the extra $ over the CS5 ultimate touring. Probably are.

Welcome aboard & Congrats on the new ride.. Looks good.
I hated the OE Flintstones my '08 Panel came with. In fact not long after getting mine Aug 29/ 2009, I sold those OE tires here in the classifieds.
Also bumped up to a 225/50/17 from the OE size 215/50/17. And I only run ZR rated directionals. I don't run my tires out, they age out.
