You'll be stuck with Boyd's or AR's custom drilled Torque Thrusts. Neither will be cheap. Plus the Boyd's are polished, not chrome.

Euromax stopped making theirs in the bolt pattern for the HHR, 5x110.

Here's a pic of the euromax:

You could always find some "steelies" and wide whites like my "other" hot rod?

Personal opinion here,but I think an HHR looks best with a multi spoke wheel like the factory wheel on a VW Golf R32.I think they're gorgeous.

Old Skool style

I searched for the old gray 5 spoke mags. They are tough to find because the offsets are so different. The old mag spokes were sunk into the middle of the wheel, and front wheel drive has most ofthe hub towards the outside of the wheel. These gray painted wheels, popular for Mustangs, re-drilled. They stick out a little too much, but closest I could get to the old gray spoke torque thrusts. I'll clean up the HHR and take some full pictures this weekend.
