I guess we are showing wheels now?



^^^ I still have these... They are in really bad shape. The best one is now my spare. ^^^



These are what I'm running now. ^^^

Sadly neither of these are made anymore...

Somebody on here also showed their HHR with a set of Torq Thrust wheels. They were old style dark color but, looked pretty nice with that Red body.
This Magna Steel (or Mocha) I think would better suited to Chrome, polished alloys, or something bright .... 🤔
My '06 Had the stock machined alloys and I liked them.
Those Foose Legends are a bit pricy but you could spend more. Moot bc no longer available and I got them used. For me it would be difficult to justify spending $1500 (give or take) on wheels for a car with a market value of around $5000, so I was constrained by what was available used and got lucky.

[QUOTE=BillsVX;928934These plastic fantastics (as I've heard them called &#128516 on the '11 look nice until they get scraped. Fortunately the scrapes are not as bad as they could be. Seen a few that were really ugly.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, not that much different than with chrome plated alloys, though, which will begin to corrode once scraped, or even before. I always though they were a pretty good idea. Wonder if those plastic veneers are easily removed and replaced, or even available for same?

There’s a YouTube video about removing the plastic and there’s Pontiac G6 alloys under the adhesive. Not polished.
