Playing with the CTS V this weekend...

[Silverback]

Those wheels look nice Roy.

Screw the money. You can't take it with you, and your kids are doing pretty well on their own. Buy the f*cking wheels.

 

[blackviper]

It's only money Roy. I agree with Silverback.

 

[Prof]

You guys are the very best friends I have ever had!

Just email the guy that is selling them!

I have wood! But even he wants $4K plus!

 

[Black1]

Here is the new Mesh 8 wheel from Forged...this is SICK!

I want them...but $6K is also sick, sick, sick!

360 Forged is one of the best manufacturers out there right now... They are really doing some nice stuff.... I look at them everyday, due to my desktop picture(s).

GO FOR IT, ROY!!! .... I think you'll be glad you did. :rock:

For 99% of the time, "Forged" is just bragging rights. Very few people push their vehicles to the limit that they need the light weight and strength that a forged item provides.

 

[Prof]

Excellent comment!

What size tire are you planning to use? ... Forged would with a small sidewall tire, because it wouldn't damage as easily (pot holes, road construction, etc)... I've been to Illinois, and driven on the roads in Chicago. You need all the protection you can get!

Those Forgestar ones are nice looking.... but no lip? :dontknow:

Plan to keep the oem for snow tires...go to these for the good weather/look good wheels and tires.

Front: 20 x 9 245 35 20;
Rear: 20 x 10.5 295 30 20

The roads here are terrible, and the pot holes are huge. I will avoid low profile tires just because I have blown three on the Volvo!

If you think 30 and 35 sidewalls aren't low pro...

 

[Prof]

Everything is relative...the snow tires will get the most abuse. (To say nothing of the current tires that have to be used up by the time I put on the Pirelli Scotto's this fall....:burnout: :burnout: :burnout: :burnout: :burnout: :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock:

 

[Django]

I'd be starting out in 2nd gear on snow with all the power that thing generates....

[Prof]

It does that in the Sport D mode. Unless you romp on it or shift it to first with the lever or the paddles...

In just plain Drive it starts in first, and under normal or light acceleration goes directly to fourth then sixth!

Maybe we will have time for you to try it a little on the 1st!
