    Jacking up your Blackwing

    Completely semi unrelated but good to know because I've got the CF side skirts to install this weekend and i already mounted the jack pads. I bet I'd forget those were on there while trying to pry the rockers off.

    Absolute Dearth of All-Season Tires for CT5-V Blackwing

    The Bridgestones continue to be delayed, but the Goodyear eagle f1s just popped up as coming soon in the size. Next year looks like there will be a couple of options potentially. I have no experience with either of the tires. Looks like the eagle f1s are a new tire except it doesn't actually...

    Savage Cadillac just released door puddle lights (not mirror)

    Just worth noting, some of the designs looks like you can get em on aliexpress for about half the cost. Don't know if there are colors on all of the logos, but at least two have them...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Savagecadillac CF overlays for the grill. They're... alright. Fit isn't great around each corner which is where it needs to be as precise as possible. Had to replace the stock gray foam tape with 3m VHB since the gray stuff doesn't have enough strength to keep it conformed. Also the bottom...

    CT5BW rattle during heavy acceleration

    Anyone have any idea what this rattle is under heavy acceleration? I've noticed it's significantly louder during 60-90mph ish pulls and with the exhaust in the fully open position. My dealer is being very unhelpful and there's not really much else I can go look for. It's a bit hard to hear in...

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    I also got a sunny day out in Omaha prior to getting sick.

    2025+ Savage Spec-2 splitter

    Agreed. I've also got that on order from Terrance. I'm probably going to end up going with Anderson for t the splitter and side skirts eventually

    2025+ Savage Spec-2 splitter

    So the v weave is slanted a bit and the bottom piece has a crack in nthe clear or something. They've sent me a replacement upper but I just reached out about the lower yesterday. Hard to see but the original forming doesn't actually follow the shape of the grill so you're bending it and forcing...

    2025+ Savage Spec-2 splitter

    How do the side skirts look? I purchased their carbon upper/lower grill header pieces and fitment is not great plus the adhesive they use is terrible. Had to replace it with VHB

    Tapout Tuning CT4-V Blackwing Carbon Fiber Front Splitter

    I did not have any oem carbon. It'd probably would be visible and noticeable but only if you care enough.

    Replacing stock tires with 285s & 325s... who's done it? Stock wheels, or new offsets?

    I went with the same tires on OEM wheels. Spacer and longer wheel studs on the back, but is it worth changing off factory alignment? I'd like to minimize wear on tires but I don't know how factory alignment is.

    Tapout Tuning CT4-V Blackwing Carbon Fiber Front Splitter

    Had it on my ct4BW when I owned it. It doesn't have the brown hue, but it does have the V Weave. When I ordered it, my first splitter was broken from shipment. 2nd one arraived in tact, but fitment was good minus the wheel spat being slightly not flush on one side. Photos attached.

    2025+ Savage Spec-2 splitter

    Naming, lack of description, and such is a bit deceptive. I'm wondering if the side skirts match up to the OEM or if they're different as well.

    4BW-5BW What has the dealer replaced under Warranty for you?

    I'm pretty sure the rear spoilers don't fully contact the body on the edges FWIW. The gasket should still be sealing most of it though.
