Found this in a 2010 sales brochure. Thought it was interesting because every now and again someone will ask "What wheels came on what model HHR ?"

 

To point out the almost imperceptible difference between #02 and #03; on fits 5 spoke steelies and the other fits 20 hole steelies.

 

I noticed that too.

I always thought the looked the same.

So it's more then just a different stem location.

Nice find! FMG.

 

If you look real close you can see the spokes on #03 are flatter, they won't fit around the steelie spokes. #02 has an arch to them.

 

We have the "01", 17" wheels on our 2LT. Very expensive to replace.

 

Those 04's are rare to find. I've only seen a couple.

 

The 05 where on my 2008 LT. I asked the sales manager why the car was marked $600 higher that Blue Book he replied "because it has mag wheels". He gave me the 1,000 mile stare after I kicked them to make the plastic sound.

They also fit 5 spoke steelies.

 

I didn't even get home and lost two of those #03's in my LS, the dealer gave me a replacement set of four, said the cleanup guy must have forgot to tighten the plastic nuts after washing the wheels! Yeah right , the car wasn't very clean , most likely the mechanic forgot after checking the brake pads

 

When I went back to the Chevy dealer to get a tire replaced I looked out the window and saw the teckh trying to pry it off with a crowbar.

Another time I saw a tech putting them on with an impact gun.

I'm trying to remember all of the reasons that I won't do business with them again. That's 3 involving wheels in this thread.
