How did you get the TPMS to fit? The stem of my sensors wouldn't even fit in the holes they drilled because the holes were too small.

Very nice Dahlia...oh so love the staggered setup. I'm really happy the Sevas setup worked our for you, I liked the R7s but just couldnt deal with the Sevas drama anymore. I think the H&Rs will complete the package (for me as well), you concerned with rubbing in the rear?

The front TPMS sensors worked out without altering anything. But both rears had to be expanded for our GM sensor would fit correctly and function. Knowing when your low profile tires are low, or punctured is far too important to run without the TPMS'.

I read alot about Sevas, good and bad, but the forged line combined with a stellar deal and a great distributor (Not Sevas themselves).. I had some faith. The rears dont rub at all, though. Does it look like they would? I think the H&R would set your car off even more than it is now. I think if I did the H&Rs, I would rub fender to tire in the rear for sure!

Re: 100% Aggression: 3-Piece 20"x8.5"/20"x10"

Thanks again for the props gang!!! I tried to fit each "mod" directly with the art and science approach to the CTS. Not over doing it, but making it seem like a package the public didn't know about, ya know?

I like the grille, but its a prototype and handmade so there's imperfections. Strut wants to photog my car with their grille and "lend" it to me. If that goes through I will have it blacked out. We'll see though... Im not tooooo fond of the Strut CTS collection so far..

... What are your guys' thoughts?
