The original manufacturer of the wheels that spin when you stop was Davin wheels. They are also the highest quality wheel of this style you will fine. Average cost is around 10,000 for a set of four. Several finishes are and styles are available the change the price significantly. Search for them on the web. They have videos on there site.

Sorry lost pics on my computer but I have a Escalade on 22X9.5 rims with the big 305 tire. Big rims are cool but are 10times better when the truck drops to the ground on bags!

I'll take some pics next chance I get. I know a guy who has a new Escalade on the 23" spinners, 6 TV's with DVD players & a phat system.

They are selling some escalades at my dealership with 22's on them, looks damn good, but its a pricey option...along with the chrome brush guard, its a nice looking combo.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Look through Truckin', Sport Truck, Street Truck and so forth, lots of ads w/ Escalades on 20s+. Also check www.sportruck.com and under shows you'll find some pics on Escalades w/ big rims. You'll have to search for it, but most of the pics are well worth it. Try the SEMA shows, they've got Escalades, i'd bet <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Past few days, we've had an older style Escalade come into the shop, didnt have spinning wheels, but it did have like 22/24s...things were huge, thats all i can tell you. If i can get a camera in, then maybe i'll sneak a few pics for ya...

Oh, and no its not a speed shop or anything, just a local Chevy dealer lol

IMO the spining wheels suck My buddy's dad bought him some new AMG with 20" spining rims He hates them and said they are hard to clean. Another friend has them on his Tohoe (22") And at high speeds the wind noise is bad! Oh and the ones them have are cheap the spining part is cromed plastic with weights glued in the inside!That is why I whent with the every day 22" flat lip. Then just drop it to the frame!!!
