My 2008 Aveo Hatch, Wheels, Tires, Lowered

Did you buy them as a package?, if so were they pricey?. I think I'm going to scrap teh idea of a new car in the spring and just add to my Aveo, I'm thinking the same springs, tires and some nice 15" wheels.
I can't get over the look of your car. How's it ride and handle compaired to stock?.

Looks great, clean and tasteful. Too bad the 0 offset wheels didn't work, I loved the way they looked.

This is a big one... Aside from the tires (that are hard as rocks because they are high performance street tires) The Car Drives and Feels like it was "Supposed To!!!" It litterally took away almost all the body roll in a normal driving situation.
It doesnt feel like a bouncy toy car any more. Its got more of a GTi feel about it (aside from how strangled the motor is).

It litteraly changed everything. It feels like it was supposed to or maybe even a sport model. Its soft enough for anything and everywhere driving, yet the springs are progressive enough to hold up under performance driving!!

I recommend!

...also i put a sportier muffler on there as well, so now i can hear the car. Not too loud, but you can now hear the RPMs!

my whole neighborhood hears my rpms......


its great!

that **** looks super clean, i like how aggressive the meats look.

Thanks Guys!

I achieved the look i was going for. Theres a small amount more i would do to it... if it was available.

About the only thing i can think of right now is an 09 hatch spoiler.... thats it.

Once again, thanks for the props! :D

i thought performance tires are super soft for better grip, and thats why they wear out faster, so why are yours super hard?

nonono... The rubber compound is ultra soft.

The sidewalls, the tire regidity is very very hard.

A Falken Azenis RT-615 by itself without a wheel to support it, can handle up to 450lbs

built that way so you get little or no tire flex in cornering. we dont like it when our letters get rubbed off the sidewalls.. :lol:
