vantasticdude Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 I am considering upgrading wheels . I got a set of 2004 CTS painted wheels for winter . Next spring I'm putting chrome on her . Does anyone have either on theirs ? Did the ride quality suffer ? Any pics ? Anyone interested in the original chrome I have on now ? Any other comments ?

Ben Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 I put 18" 5 spoke polished mags on my Concours about 7 months ago. Rubber was Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 235/50/18. Ride was not affected much, a little harsher and you notice highway bumps a more, but not bad. Very much worth it for the look. Mine is triple black and I blacked put the grill and taillight chrome pieces and I get asked if it is an Impala SS all the time. Looks really mean. It is in the body shop right now repairing a delivery guy accident or I would post pics for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardio-doc Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Vantasticdude: Those painted finish 17" 2004 CTS wheels are sharp. Makes for some nice winter wheels. I'd make the jump to 18". Handling and looks will improve without much degradation in ride quality like 19's or 20's. I don't sell 18's for your car. Good luck with it Ben: Post pics! I love Deville's like yours and would enjoy seeing pics. ~Doc --- Direct Performance on Ebay CaddyInfo.com Cadillac Conversations Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Post pics! I love Deville's like yours and would enjoy seeing pics. Cardio-DHL shipping company scraped the whole side of my car a few weeks ago and I hope to have my car back in pristine shape in the next week or so. Pics will follow!

vantasticdude Posted September 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 you know I was almost certain I was going to stick w/17s but now I'm highly considering 18s . Thanks for the input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vantasticdude Posted September 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 CARDIO - I guess they're off a 2003 only 16s but that makes tires cheaper . They are flawless as far as I can tell (I was told they where pulled at less than 1000 miles & they look it ) only thing is my tire shop is having trouble matching the weights that are on . They have the old fashioned & the glue on ......where can I get the low profile ones like are on ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
