Wheel Vintiques 08 HHR Series Smoothie Chrome Rims

I'm new to the group and have an opening question I would like to throw out there. I've done my homework on which rims I'm about to put on my HHR but I'm finding a small issue with the numbers not matching up. I read a thread on this forum (https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/tire...pattern-11187/) that my offset needs to be within 34mm to 42mm... and that seems to be the issue.

The Wheel Vintiques 08 HHR Series Smoothie Chrome Rims part #08-6621105 (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/wv...p4MaArm98P8HAQ) shows the offset being +32mm which would appear to make these rims not fit my vehicle. Then while browsing the forum I come across this thread (https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/tire...our-hhr-27740/) where Senior Member "Mrarff" has the Wheel Vintiques rims listed as one of his modifications.

So whats up?

Do the Wheel Vintiques Rims #08-6621105 fit on 08' HHR LS Panel? or do I need to keep looking for another rim?

Any info is appreciated, thanks in advance.

ps. I run a wedding cake bakery and the HHR is our new delivery vehicle :)

aboard!

Yes those rims will work just fine on your HHR, we have quite a few members running about every variation of the Wheel-Vintiques rims, and no issues reported.

Here's a link to W-V's site, with the full line of HHR rims, plus there's contact info so you can call them with any questions.

My wheels are 38 and I would say there is room to run 32.

as I get older I can't remember certain things, that being said, my rims came from summit racing some years ago , and all I remember is the description said they were for hhr's, I took their word for it and we have been riding for years with no problems :-)
