Wheel Vintiques
soooooooooo
does anyone have an opinion on the quality of these rims and/or the overall affects on the HHR? Like, drivability issues, brake complications, etc?

Don't you mean "on HER car", 
--- Yes, I have the wheels and love them a lot. And Leon, on this forum also has them on his two-toner, but a different style. He had a problem with timeliness of getting them, but I didn't...I think these places go up and down with the shifts of management or something. They won't do paint matching, so I had to have it done - I think Leon did his own.
The only slight problem is that the hubs were put on before the paint was fully cured and now I'm getting a bit of rust behind them that we have to watch carefully. But that's a "paint" problem.

Cool! Thanks for letting me know.
On my PT I have Baby Moons and no problems, and I think that Wheel Vintiques made them.
I wanted to get the smoothies with those holes for the HHR to give it a meaner look and then get those 49 hubs and paint the bowtie.
I am nervous about swapping out the rim and voiding the warranty or ruining some drivability issue.
I added all my crud on my PT outside my warranty.
