Do SRX 18" rims fit on a CTS-V? I've done numerous searches and keep coming up empty. So far this is what I've found:
Wheel specs:
SRX - 18" x 8" 51mm offset
CTSV = 18" x 8.5" 42mm offset
By using the SRX rims on the CTS we would have the following:
Inner Clearance: 3mm LESS (the inside of the wheel to the strut housing)
Outer Position: RETRACT by 15mm (position of the outside edge of the wheel)
I'm thinking that at worst, we can run a 15mm spacer to move the wheel back to it's outer position. My concern now, does the SRX wheels clear the CTS-V calipers?
I'm considering these to mount a spare set of rubber on. Has anyone tried it?

V and cost effective wheels do not go together.
