Screech,

You might want to look into some dealers listed on UltraRacingUSA site, some of them ship from warehouses located in U.S.

U.S. Warehouse=No customs charges. :D Definitely worth looking into. I believe ThrowDownPerformance (he is one of Forum Advertisers on here) is on that list. You can talk to him to see if he ships from U.S. rather than from Canada or Malaysia.

they say 06 - 09 aveo. i thought that the aveo bodies were the same from 04 - 07. so just wondering should they fit an 04.

i believe they should fit. i don't think their was any changes that would affect the installations for the 1st gen aveos. can anyone confirm this :?

I'd love to have these bars if they do fit the 04

For those that asked about the fitment with the UR bars and the earlier model aveos's
this is from directly from Phil with Ultra Racing Canada...I asked if they fit and this is what he said back

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Eric. On further research, the chassis was maintained through the T200 to T250 styling changes. Therefore, the bars should fit all Aveos (Waves, Swift+) from 2002 through 2010.

Regards,
Phil.

:D

I also have mine from Ultra Racing Canada, their support is great.
The wheels look good on your ride.

:D thank you. white is hard to keep clean though :lol:

do you every have any issues with rubbing with your tires im looking at getting a set of konig bumps 16" and i was also wondering about the spacers, are they just for looks or do they stop the tires from rubbing.

no rubbing at all with the 16's, even before the spacers were added i never had any rubbing issues.

i went with the 15mm spacers all around to widen the stance a bit is all :D

my main fear is the small sidewall, have you had any problems with potholes or rough roads with such a small tire or for rougher roads would you recommend 15"

no real problems with rough roads or potholes. the ride is a bit more bumpy is all, should be less though with the exra rubber on the 15's. honestly i would still like a nice set of 15's. i purchased my wheels from a friend for a killer price i couldn't pass up, but if i were to make the choice again i would go with a nice set of 15x7's , perhaps some slipstreams :D

new pics of some stuff i've been working on over the past few weeks.
I also recently changed my timing belt, tensioner and idler pulley, water pump, serpentine belt, front brake pads and rotors, painted calipers and drums black, joey modded my headlights the same color as car, color matched front grill, and a added a high flow cat to a nice dual tip and changed my oil
enjoy :D

Hey all been awhile since I've been on. Graduated in May 2011 with my bachelors in Mathematics Education and moved out to San Antonio and have been trying my luck as a high school math teacher in Pleasanton, Texas. Still Driving the Aveo and still having fun. No new mods, but still looking at coilovers eventually =)

Congrats on graduating. Glad to see you still got the Aveo around. Going to check out any autocross meets in the new area?

Thanks . Yea hopefully sometime soon I can get myself all setup with the local scca events. As soon as I have some steady money I'll probably down the money for coils and start looking into it =) I've had my sway bar kit from rabbit for too long now haha

Very cool, congrats on school and getting a job :D
