New wheels on the 2008 CTS (not a V)
I finally got around to installing my wheels on the CTS. Had them a few months, but just been too busy to mess with them. I'm a dealer for several forged wheel brands, and decided to give Sevas Forged a try this time around.
Sevas Forged "R77", 3-piece construction
Brushed/cleared centers, chrome lips
20x8.5 fronts with 245/35-20 Nitto 555 tires
20x10 rears with 285/30-20 Nitto 555 tires
Fitment on the car is great. Only issue was not being able to easily mount the TPMS sensors on the wheel. I've dealt with this issue on several brands, so now I just use epoxy glue and put them inside the wheels before the tires get mounted. More on that how-to later, I took pics of the process. Car is currently 100% stock other than the wheels, but I just received Eibach lowering springs to install.
Pics!

they sure do. i know the owner (i live in miami and we went to high school together) and he told me how things were after i asked him for some custom wheels for the V and told me, sorry brother, closed shop.
have fun with them. they look great and the color on the car is outstanding, but it sure needs a drop.
