And the TPMS nuts ($5 ea, 84413358 for TPMS 84977020, paid $132 for 4) . There could be third party alternatives to the TPMS others have mentioned.

Your numbers match my notes from last Fall when I was trying to order some. Unless they changed since then, they should all be correct, polished and satin.

Hoping not to create another one of those jacking debates, but the service manual does not list the pinch weld to be used for the rear on the 4BW. I've just used my jack with a large rubber cover to contact the suspension bracket with no problems.

I checked that number 85561509 on a couple sites and it successfully added to the cart. Do they take the order but then respond it isn't available? gmpartswarehouse warns there is a 7-day factory lead time.

No, the holes are larger than OEM so the clips won't grip. The overall diameter of the cap is about the same though. I fabricated what are essentially adapters as described here: Questions from an overthinking/over prepared engineer impatiently waiting his Ct4-V B.W.

At one time Tapout listed reproductions of the support brackets but I don't see them listed anymore. But really the price was pretty close to the factory bumper cover so that should still be a viable option if you have the means to get that huge box home. Then you either keep the cover as a...

I installed the Tapout rear spoiler on my car over a year ago and I haven't seen any evidence of leakage. But, it did concern me because the standard OEM spoiler had that adhesive bond along the front edge, and the rear gasket completely encircled the screws and holes through the deck lid. I...

gmpartswarehouse.com lists it, but says it's a 7 day factory wait. Pretty pricey even discounted, and shipping across the US will likely be a killer too. You have a typo on the second part number. Image is from Cadillac.com - parts and msrp is $2597.42 GMpartsgiant and GMpartsdirect also popped...

I'm happy with the satin black. I also considered the anthracite but thought it might be too close to the Shadow Metallic color and wanted some contrast, plus it matched the black trim. And we have bl4ck_wng with Shadow Metallic with silver for the trifecta.

It's a 5 not a 4, but it might give an idea Media dumps

Maybe someone attending Spring Mountain soon can ask them what they are using. Similar environment to Phoenix, but maybe a little different for those of us in winter states, and not tracking 100% of the time.

It's from the recommended list, but I kept the stock rim width which gives offsets 30 front and 35 rear. The front is almost identical (28 stock) but the rear pushes out about 1/2 inch. Essentially the sidewall now protrudes from the fender. Probably messes up the aerodynamics and it's going to...

On with the Summer tires and the first install of the Apex wheels.

It is a PITA to remove. there are other threads discussing it. If you look at mine closely you'll see the effect of teh sticky tape. Use fishing line, don't pry EVER, and good luck with that outer stud that slides into a clip that doesn't release and impossible to get to. Here are some other...
