I got a 2000 Catera, and the chrome wheels are in really bad shape. One is totally missing the center piece, and all of them have the cadillac logo missing
from the center and are starting to peel and pit from the winter I presume.
I was wondering if the CTS and STS chrome wheels are the same bolt pattern
as the Cat. Both CTS and STS are rear wheel drive correct? If any one knows, or has a Cat with these wheels on it, please reply in earnest. Thx.

The Catera uses a different bolt pattern than the CTS/STS. The Catera(Opel Omega) and some Saab's use this 5x110 pattern. The CTS/STS even though they are RWD use the 5x115 pattern that the FWD cadillacs use.

So they won't fit? Thx for the reply STS/Allante

Well how is it that I've seen Catera's with 18, 19 and 20 inch wheels on them?

you buy a 18,19,or 20 inch rim with a 5x110 bolt pattern. doesnt seem to complicated to me...

wheel-size and bolt-pattern are 2 different sets of requirements. here's a set of aftermarket 18" rims fitted to my catera, with the requisite 5x110 bolt-pattern of course.

That's one good looking car Walt. Noticed you're from the "D" also. I have a 2000 Cat which is Dark Green and I'm also looking to upgrade my rims and tires. What kind of rims are those and what tires are they? Also looks like you have a custom grille. Please reply in earnest.
