The HHR only has a few inches of travel to begin with. Take away much and leave all of your dental work on the road.

NONE of these crazy ideas will do anything for cargo capacity. I have carried close to a ton without bottoming out. Most of what determines cargo capacity is brakes and, not suspension HEIGHT.

The difference between a 3/4 ton truck and a 1 ton truck is the brakes and the wheels/bearings.

That will not change the space you need to get those tires to fit your HHR, yes it will lift the vehicle and change the distance of the fender lip to the outside of the tire but not the inside of the tire to the bottom spring plate in the struts.
