Administrator help? those interested send me a pm for pricing and pics since i don't want upset the higher ups here knowing this should be in classifieds.

Datapoint, the accessory wheels are 3 lbs lighter than the OEM wheels. I recently installed a set of accessory wheels onto a Thunder Gray 07 V, and they look great. Not over/under stated.

what tire sizes did you go front/rear? i'm thinking about keeping one set(they are so clean) and running 275/40-18 rear and 245/45-18 front. option would be 275/35-18 rear and 275/40-18 front. looking at either hankook v12's or bfg kdw2's.

you have any pics?? mine is stealth gray so somewhat similar to thunder gray.

I think his username is AIIC or ACIIC or something like that. He's got a Stealth Gray V with the wheels, and I am pretty sure he posted photos. His car is what inspired me to think more seriously about the accessory wheels. It looks great and is a factory Cadillac wheel, nevermind the 3 lb less weight per wheel.

I am running OEM tire size V12s. I don't drive aggressively enough on the street for larger tires, and the hit to fuel mileage. I personally would not run 275s on an 8.5" width wheel, 9" is minimum. The TD wheels are 18x9, I'd consider running 275s on those. The tire is going to pinch on an 8.5" wheel. Some say it works okay, so it's just my opinion.
