i dont think it will wrk on a car with the eibachs...
stock might still rub...and nothings more hooptie than a rubbing fender.
looks GREAT! but how does it drive?
18's are still good enough for stock lambo's...
makes u think if a 2-300k car runs them, maybe they know
the the difference between looks, and performance, is'nt
worth the sacrifice. just my 02.

Talk to type911 on here or on the caddy forum. He has a set of like new true forged 20's that are black. Insane looking wheels and I believe he has tires, tps, and wheels as a package.

those cts-v accessory rims are really nice...1200(set of 4) i think from
luke at lindsay cadillac...cheap if u ask me...
then u can get ur factory rims powder coated (black chrome)
and have a summer, and winter set of wheels...that's what i'll be doing next spring.
fo' sho'!

omg cold winter air + cts-v = hardon!
i wont drive in snow but as long as theres no sand and salt on roads, im
sideways as much as possible...so yea, all season tires and rim set up ,and summer
tire and rim set up, will save dividends in the long run.
but if u got ur heart set on something, dont let any1 sway ur thinking, just
be carefull not to spend twice on a possible mistake. the 20's look great
but 19's are a safe compromise, i would hate to spen 4-6g's and in the end
rub fenders and lose drivability, also remeber if u got potholes from summer,
winter changeovers 20's bend really ez with low pro tires (heavy car/tight suspention). better to have some tire to protect
those expensive wheels.
also to be honest i wont consider rims till sum1 makes atleast a 4 inch lip.
a 6 inch lip?... and where do i sign up.

i hear yah...but 4 g's in wheels and tires...2 more grand and u got a maggie.
how do u justify the money spent? wheels are and alway will be a fad...remember spinners? 18's 20's now 26's 30's... u cant see them from inside the car, so it's all
about what u think people think...and i say, phuq what (other) people think.
and dont analize, im just rambling... lol im having a bad day

lol u bastid...the "truck motor" goes well with the truck lug pattern.
i know the 6.0 is like a ***** envy thing...u'll be okay stubby.<---ha!
u may be right...but i've learned people want room to to personalize
a vehicle to make it "thiers". why do u think so many folks off thier wheels on ebay
be4 they sell thier cars? (they try to return them back to stock to sell quicker)
