sooo..
1) stock wheels (a handful of STS-V wheels, too)
2) forgestars
3) 3-5 people that have enough money for CCW/iforged/HRE
4) 5-8 people that have 5 lug swapped and done something different.
the fact is that no one has REALLY tried to push the limits of what does and does not fit on the car. the largest i've seen are some CCWs that are a high offset 19x11, but then you can't even put a big tire on it because it'll rub like crazy. i probably have some of the more aggressive wheels on this car (19x9.5 +33mm with 3mm spacer, 245/35R19 square) and even i sometimes think i could have gone bigger and crazier.
people are too conservative, especially with ride height.

This is too good, I was just drooling over your car for almost an hour before I made this tread. I couldn't find what brand wheels you had but you posted size and offset!!!
Edit: and I agree to a certain point! I love the slammed look and nice wheels, doesn't have to be big wheels but staggered setups in my eyes are the beeeez kneeezz. I just want some nice 19x10.5 out back with a 275 and just barely tuck the top of the tire. But I doubt that's possible

That's not an unreasonable goal, but 10.5" is a little wider than necessary for a 275--unless you're looking for the stretched tire "hella flush" look. The STS-V wheels I have are a 19x9.5x56mm offset with a 275 tire and capable of tuckage but they aren't exactly flashy.

Or they aren't being conservative at all, but don't share your aesthetic taste or desire to lower a car so much.

The Accessory wheels are gone, I sold those off a few years ago. The TDs are obviously the track wheels, the Rotas are the winter wheels, the Linea Corses are the summer wheels, and the CCWs are the, uhhh... back-up summer wheels? 
Some dude was selling them over on cadillacforums 4 or 5 years ago, nobody ever bit on them, so I got them (with Michelin PS1s) for $1000 (he had originally asked $1800, as I recall). I didn't need them, as I already had the LCs, but I couldn't pass up on that deal!
Oh, and I forgot the wheels that came on the car when I bought it - Mille Miglia MM11s, 18x8" +40 (or something like that). They were sold by Tire Rack way back when, but are long discontinued. I kept one as my full-size spare, sold off the other 3 (presumably also to be used as spares).
