CTS-V stock rims --- I like..question

Cartdawg · #1 (**permalink**) 02-21-08, 11:34 AM

Alright..I've been thinking....a lot...and i want rims..yes....and I know the 18" CTS-V rims dont fit our cars...which really sucks.

I'd like to have those stock 18" V rims on my car. Why can't they make them work like that?!?!

Does anyone know of an alternative that's 'like' those...that would work?

I couldnt find anything search wise......but that'd be a great thing..if it would work...

don't remember for sure, but thought someone said that vogue makes a similar wheel, cv7 or something.

There is a guy on ebay called cardiodoc that sells wheels that look like V wheels and they will fit you cts. I got a set and they look quite nice. Too bad for you, I paid $499 and now he want $699 a set. Still cheap, you will want the optional caddy center caps for an extra $50. Look for cts v chrome 18" wheels, you should not have to search very far.

You are correct...however, I will not be spending 3k for a set of rims/tires...

Yea the Vouge CV7s look like the V wheels.

I think flip has them, the ones on the left SUMMER wheels.

Cardiodoc is selling them for more than he did originally, however, my parts guy made a good point. He said that imitation caddy wheels dont do the car justice. he didn't sell me the wheels but I got a damn good deal on some '07 sport rims and tires from detroit wheel and tire company on ebay. I was seriously considering buying those wheels, but you really don't know what kind of quality you are getting.
