Just picked these up for $200

I'm going to check again in the morning, but I think they're Konig. They're 18" universal 5 bolt, not sure about the offset, going to try a pair on the front tomorrow and make sure they fit without hitting the caliper or rubbing but they should be alright as they were on a malibu before. One has a slight bend on the inside lip because they guy hit a curb and blew out the tire but there is a good wheel shop in town that should be able to fix it. I bought them anyway because it was a steal of a deal and they look good next to the car. Even if they don't fit right, I can get the one fixed and still profit to resell them. Need to find out what brand they are for sure because I'm going to want the center caps.

If you HHR is a 5x110, they wont fit. "universal" technically will be 10 lug. 2 5 lug bolt patterns usually 5x108/5x114.3. 2 most common lug types.

Like I said, I'll try em tomorrow, if they don't fit, I can still resell them. They were on a malibu, depending on what year malibu it could be 5x110. Or if necessary, if they were 5x108, that means a redrill would oblong the wholes by around 1mm, which is almost literally nothing.

A good machine shop the re-drills wheels generally drill & press in a steel collar, for better than stock new holes..

PS: Might wanna think about "hub-Centric rings also..

Nice looking rims, Hope they fit w/no problems..

Thanks guys, definitely gonna get centric rings from the wheel shop when I get the one fixed. Was also thinking about painting the machined faces of the spokes black to match the sides of the spokes. I was originally looking for a black face rim with a chrome lip anyway and the black really sets off the orange.

If they are off an 04 up Malibu, they will fit. 03 and older, they won't.

might have to get redrilled anyway, the bolt holes are too narrow for lugnuts?
