    Wheels for CT5 V Blackwing

    It should, im running 285/30-20s on a 20x10.5 +13 wheel. The overall diameter difference is minimal, with yours only being .5% taller.

    Wheels for CT5 V Blackwing

    It should. But if for some reason the wheel touches the strut, loosen the strut bolts and pull the knuckle out to take the camber out and give you more clearance.

    CT5-V Max tire size (diameter, width) you can put on stock 5BW suspension w/no rubbing?

    I did not, but I have my camber maxed out and gives me an extra few mm of clearance away from the strut.

    Newbie question: ride quality diff in 2025 5BW

    They had a reasoning why they stopped selling to out of staters. Their wait list got too long and they were concerned they would alienate their local and in tx buyers. Idea is most of their return customers would be them so they wanted to get the list trimmed down to manageable. Iirc, that...

    From the Santa Cruz Highway Patrol page

    Man, fines is one thing, but 30-day impound would be the more painful part of the total cost of that situation.

    CT5-V Installed aftermarket carbon ceramic brakes on 5BW, pictures and impressions

    They stated braking wise, the irons are up par with the CCBs. Where they shine is the less mass on the corners and almost no dust. From what alot of us gathered talking to the engineers, the brake firmware between CCBs and Irons are different. But doesnt seem different enough to throw the...

    Has anyone tuned their A10 transmission?

    Did you check with Scott and verified if they tuned the trans or not? Honestly kinda dumb not to if the previous owner is just being cheap. You're really leaving alot on the table without trans tuning with a modified engine.

    CT5-V BW Strut Tower Brace

    Since you're in Tampa, I'd hit up BMR in Lakeland and see if they wanna try to test fit one of their Camaro strut bars on. Might fit since the chassis and strut tower looks sooooooo similar between the two and both being Alpha2 chassis'.

    CT5-V BW Strut Tower Brace

    Did you try to see if your local cadillac dealer can order it, vs trying to order it online? Figured dealer should be able to tell you if they can or cannot get it.

    One new tire, one used

    Dont think it would be that serious. Most of us will replace rear tires before we replace the fronts, some would even get different brand tires than OEM, or even taller tires and the traction control hasnt fritzed yet (unless youre going from 26" to 27"+ tires).

    CEL P10BA - Charge Air Cooler (CAC) Coolant Pump Control Circuit

    Sounds like time to find another servicing dealership. But have they replaced the pump yet? But the fact they dont know how to bleed the system, I'd be wary of them bleeding it correctly after replacing the coolant pump since that will drain most of the fluid out of the system. Might be...

    CT5-V CT5 Blackwing Deep Ocean Blue?

    Seems lighter color than the darker Le Monstre belts. Le Monstre almost look purplish when I saw it first hand.
