CTS-V-TWIN 10-24-09, 01:44 PM Both the painted OEM wheels I had and the polished OEM wheels I have now click. I must add that the painted OEM wheels clicked way louder than the polished wheels though. Must have something to do with the smooth finish of the polished wheels. SG anonfrank 10-24-09, 04:10 PM My polished wheels click occasionally, only at full lock slow turns in the parking lot. Again, It's not bad enough for me to take it to the dealer unless GM has found a real solution. cbloveday 10-24-09, 07:52 PM 1800 miles build date 4/09 No clicking, yet tedcmiller 10-24-09, 08:01 PM Polished factory wheels with onset of clicking at about 2000 miles. I tightened the lug nuts up (no torque wrench) and the clicking stopped. I expect it to return shortly. Q Diesel 10-24-09, 09:02 PM Stock Wheels.....same as above, only at full lock slow turn like backing out of a curvy driveway. RapidRob 10-24-09, 11:30 PM OEM polished wheels: First noticed clicking at around 3000 miles. Wheels click during moderate to full-lock left or right turns. I'm not going to try and fix the problem myself right now, but will give the dealer a crack at it next time in ... :suspect: Rob thunder gray 10-24-09, 11:49 PM Same as RapidRob. Low_ET 10-25-09, 10:31 AM I had clicking on my OEM wheels. I cleaned the surfaces and re-torqued the wheels. Now the clicking is gone and hasn't yet returned. AuPanda 10-25-09, 11:04 AM My polished wheels click occasionally, only at full lock slow turns in the parking lot. Again, It's not bad enough for me to take it to the dealer unless GM has found a real solution. :yeah: FastRunner 10-25-09, 03:22 PM Polished factory wheels with onset of clicking at about 2000 miles. I tightened the lug nuts up (no torque wrench) and the clicking stopped. I expect it to return shortly. This too is what I did. It returned in about 3 weeks. Everlast13 10-26-09, 08:44 AM On my OEM polished wheels had clicking @ low speeds, now I have aftermarket rims with no clicking. | |
