Here's a picture of my car.



Sorry if the pics look terrible. I took them with a camera phone.





Here's a close up of the rims



Here's my trunk



I plan on buying new ICE rims with the cadillac emblem placed in the center. Anybody living in the d.c. area?

Maybe with a lift kit, but I would not waste my time, buy a car 22s will fit on, or leave the 20s, looks good as is.

I have no idea who makes them. I saw a 300C with 22's and 25 series tires and I saw a 750iL with the same setup. It filled up their wheelwell nice without making their cars look like HOTWHEELS. It just seems like the 20's I got seem so small. I've seen 22's on a couple of big bodies (crown vic and chevy caprice) and that seems to be the perfect size I need. I really don't want to have to cut out the wheel well though.

my boy threw 22'z on his 97 park av, he jes had to put spacers on his springs....rides fine no problems.... (yet)

ur car looks straight with the 20'z, maybe just get a new set of rims

22'z would look tight, but what about ur skirt?...will the width of rimm make it possible

24's on a car look rediculous...any car that looks like a hotwheels car.
stick with 20 or 22'z

I am getting 20 inch ICE (model888) put on my car Tuesday or Wednesday this week. Here's a picture of them.


I'm also getting a gold cadillac symbol put in the center of each of them. Does anybody know where to get the old school cadillac symbol with the ducks in the shield? I really want to put those on the rims instead of the new symbol that has squares in the shield and the wreath that is one piece. I should have pic's of the whip with the new rims by wednesday or thursday. I don't think the skirt in the back should affect 22's as long as the rim isn't wider than 8.5 inches. That damn skirt is the reason why I can't get Davin rims. But I still love that skirt though.

22's on 94, 95, 96 deville?

For those of you asking. Yes you can fit 22s on MOST cadillac deville cars, however you WILL need a very specific rim to do so.

I have a 95 deville and i just bought some 22s for it and got them installed today and am driving it right now.

At WORST you will need a sledgehammer. My car is rather old, so the spring perch in the front two struts were kinda saggy. They were sitting ontop of my front 2 tires. But the mechanic (with my permission) used the sledgehammer (before u start ranting about safety, i graduated top of my class Cum Laude for auto body collision repair, i know whats safe and whats not) and hit the spring perch about 7-10x each(spring perch) so it bent them back up & outta the way(like they would be if brand new). After that, they fit right on, like a ****in glove. LITTLE bit of scrubbing when i turn up steep driveways. But nothing a trim or some brand new suspension wouldnt clear up.



You will need:
-Rims 22"x8.5" (MAX WIDTH)
-Tire size 245/30/zr/22
-FWD OFFSET(this is of the UTMOST IMPORTANCE!!!)
-Lug pattern 5x114.3
-Sledge hammer OR Brand new struts



And for those who want to know my history to do something like this. This is my 5th cadillac on rims, and 10th CAR on rims(not JUST cadillacs) ive done everything from audi a4s on 19s to challengers on 24s and jeeps on 26s. Ive been riding rims on every car i get since 2007. So if ever u need questions. Just hmu. And if i dont know. Im sure i can find someone who DOES.

The FWD Deville uses a 115 X 5 bolt circle, 12 X 1.5 lugs, the wheel centers on the hub bore, high positive offset, original tire OD was about 27.1".

Please note this thread is 14 years dead, so apparently not much interest. Welcome to CF !!!
