In my bug I was sporting some Konig Burners and was thinking about seeing how they look on this car. My dad drives my bug now and I know he's not all into the whole aftermarket thing. The bug had a 5 lug setup also and the rims were a universal 5 lug. I assume they should fit. I know the Mali is a 5 x 110 spacing on the lugs. I think the Bug was a 5 x 100. But I figure if they were universal that the other set of 5 holes on them would be the 5 x 110 spacing I need.
Only downsde is that the rims are 16" and with the 205/55/16 I had on the Bug the rim to rubber to wheel well size was perfect. I know my Mali is a 16 also but has more rubber so it may make the rim look smaller. I'll just have to see how they look.

Incase u want to see what Burners look like, here ya go: http://www.konigwheels.com/images/304_s.jpg

No I have an LS...it came stock 16's. I'd like to keep the feel of the ride so I'd stay with the same size tires as stock.

Ok, so yesterday I'm at the local McDonalds and a Chevy Equinox (sp) pulled up with some nice factory rims. My question is would those rims fit on the Mali?

I would assume the lug pattern is the same size. If i were to put rims on my car I would really like them to be official Chevy products, badge and all. I'd really like to have a list of Chevy's that have the same lug pattern.

The lug pattern on the Malibu (5-110) is different than the Equinox (5-115).
I believe the Pontiac G-6 and the Saturn Aura have 5-110.
Figures..lol...thanks for the info tho.

I like the way they fill up the wheel wells but wtf is up with the vents and those things on the doors? That car has such a natural classy look that adding the little things like that pull away from it. But to each their own I guess.

I would LOVE to put rims on my car but I also love how smooth it rides with the stock 16's on them. And I know to go to a lower profile tire would just alter that feeling....AND 16's are so much cheaper to replace than 19's or 20's.
