I have aftermarket Aluminum spoke type wheels.
They look good on my car but my car is not a typical Eldorado.
I would be cautious changing wheel sizes. It will change the overall gear ratios. Speedometer will not be accurate.

It will take you a lot of time to check every message.
It is a nice gesture on your part but I think it would get overwhealming.

One word: PIMPIN. Those are cool. I definitely only like putting cadillac rims on cadillacs (no after markets for me)

Sorry guys, but I broke with the GM tradition...I have 20" Zenith 100 spoke wheels for my Fleetwood. I'll post some pics when the salt if off the roads!:rolleyes:

Cheers,

Yeah, I like those a lot better than most aftermarket wheels. Those wheels look classy, like they belong on the car!

nicely matching 20s will look awesome in our cads. It's just the few that goes for the flashness that gets flamed.

Hey guys go to www.tirerack.com. On this site you can pull up your caddy (most models mid 80's and newer) and it will be a picture of your car with the factory wheels and you can select different custom wheels and see what they would look like on your car. The only draw back is their selection is somewhat repetitive after the first 4 styles, and I didn't see any style I really cared for. But it was a cool way to get a picture of my car, exact wheels and color.

I have 1999 Eldorado chrome wheels with Goodyear Eagle tires on my 2000 Deville. Looks good and havent seen that combination on others yet.

Has anyone tried the repro Cadillac wheels that AAA rims offers? They're on e-bay now and again.

They look like stock STS/SLS 7-spoke (the rounded spokes with the holes for the lugnuts), but the repros are 17" instead of 16".

They have them here http://www.aaarims.com/chrome.shtml on special for $800 for the set. Here's a pic
http://www.aaarims.com/wheels/4539-17.JPG.

They have a decent warranty on the chrome, although I don't expect them to hold up like GM rims, I would only run them in the summer, which should help keep them in good shape.

I like these better than Cadillac's stock 17" wheels.

Here is a link to my 94 ETC with 17" aftermarket wheels. Car rides a little stiffer, but other than that I have no problems, and the car handles great.

Rick,

Those wheels look great! IMHO, 17" wheels are just the right size for modern FWD Cadillacs - just the right stance.

What brand of wheels are they, if you don't mind me asking?

RSV Racing, the rim shop had them in stock so I don't know who distributes them
