sprucegoose Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 I've had the new rims on now for a few days, found a set of used pilot sports on ebay cheap, what da ya think? One word... Wicked! I love that look on your car. Most of the time you think of a sinister looking car you think black, but with those wheels... even on your white ride, just make it look evil! Very nice!!

STS Scott Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Those look pretty stellar! The car overall look tough too... Certainly something I wouldn't recon with. What size rubber do you have them wrapped in?

STS Scott Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Oooooooo! That last shot there really shows off the depth of the wheels. Good stuff!

ByStorm Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Your car looks hot...!!! I have an '01 STS. Tell me how the handling and the ride is with the 18" wheels and tires on your vehicle. I am considering doing the same. Peace ByStorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronson Posted May 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Maremrak, they are 16x7 American Racing and are in very good shape. The tires are two different sizes but the same overall diameter. I have two 255x50X16 Z rated Fulda and I have three Goodyears 235X55X16 H rated. Not sure what the wheels or the tires are worth but I am planning to post with pics in the "For Sale" of this site. Bystorm, The new rims are 18X8 with a 35mm offset and the tires are 255X45X18. The ride is outstanding to be honest. I also have Eibach springs, the ride is not harsh at all even after the larger diameter rims and tires. The major difference is that you don't have all of that bouncing around. The "Cadillac feel" is still there, even when you load up the car with passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmpafford Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 i like the way your caddy looks. w/ those rims u went from a corner street hooker, 2 a sophisticated call girl w/ class, nice look! I never knew calling something a whore was a good thing? Am I just behind the times? Or is it like calling a Victorian home with a multiple color paint scheme a "Painted Lady" even though that was a derogatory 1880's term for a working girl who wore makup. "Good girls" did not wear makup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yenko Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 Did you get your wheels on ebay? Are they these wheels here? If not, they look similar! I think they look awsome on your white STS! I wouldn't mind getting something like that style of wheel when I am ready to buy! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=43958 IMPORT CRUSHER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
