Yeah, you should be good to go, since the 2007 and the 2010 have the same bolt pattern/bore. You just need the appropriately sized tire for the alloy rims (185/55R15).
Would it work for a 2004 Chevy Aveo Sedan, because I've been thinking of upgrading my stock 14" rims to 15" rims with low pro tires
Yes as said . If you stay around the same off set in the 15 inch. As the first person said they like a 10 aveo rim it is a drict fit As the aveo did come with 14 inch but did have a option to go with 15 inch factory alum rim. If you look at my garge you will see the 09 GM AVEO with Pontiac ceneter cap I put on with a bit wider tire 195/55/15. rim size is 15x6, 4x100 bolt.
This will work 2004-2010 Aveo, Wave, Swift in USA or CANADA
AVEO 2004-2010, WAVE 2009-2010 USA
AVEO 2004-2010, WAVE 2005-2010, SWIFT 2005-2010 CANADA
I upgraded this spring on my 2006 Aveo to a 15 inch wheel. I am glad I did. Performs much better in the rain compared to the factory roller skates and I can cruise at 75 and the car feels safe and sturdy on 15's.
+1, I would even recommend a 195 tire
if you don't change the tire size the speedo might get thrown off a little
No doubt, the speedo will be off a fuzz on the fast side, so keep that in mind if you cruise ~5 over the speed limit, it'll really translate to around 7 over. I'm on 16's and it really makes things strange. If you ask me, honestly if you're going to spend the money on new wheels, why not just get something that looks like the stock wheel but wider? Yeah I understand going a little bigger is cool, but that wimpy 5.5? inch wheel doesn't do much justice. I'd bet money that you could find a wheel that looks similar to the stockers that would wider, have a more appropriate offset, and could accommodate a tire that would be cheaper to run then the goofy one chevy advises us to use. That's just my 2 cents.
totally agree with festersays. I'm running 15's, same total wheel/tire height, but I have an extra half inch on width. I really didn't think it'd make a difference, but the extra 1/2 on the road makes a huge improvement. Plus I had a ton of different tire choices vs like two choices at the factory width.
I am running 15's from a VW, with 205/50/15 tires. In the winter I run 195/60/14's on the stock rims. My aveo is also lowered 1.5''
no clearance issues, and I have had a full load in the back of my car for a move, no problems.
HI DAUG. exactly what vw did u get your rims from that work on aveo?
Swapped 185/65/14 to 205/55/15
Trying to figure out how to post picture on here .
30-33 mph to 28-30 mph when I did it.Quote:

ok so it says the difference is a whopping 1.7%
thats really close to the original car, even tire wear can eat up 1.7% easy
plus the cornering, but theres one more thing you need for great cornering - the rear sway bar. 40mph turns thats what the guy said, and you know what? Probably need a sway bar
Oh, I forgot.. coilovers.
One more thing I forgot to add to this discussion, its a saying I read:
1 pound of rotating mass is worth 5 pounds of other mass
soo one thing.. 15 inch rims have a larger rotating mass than 14" rims, soo I would go for the 185/55/r14 rims because their rotating center of mass is on a smaller diameter
you gotta wind the motor up more though
lets look this up on the Miata calculator: it says -6.2% that means more torque, I'd go for 185/45/r14 but nobody manufactures this
