    18x10 square possible for CT4VBW for track days?

    I'm not sure if this answers your question but there are people running the 19x10/11 OE 5BW wheels on their 4BWs. So a 10" width up front should work. You can find some pictures and threads on this forum.

    CT5-V Might be selling my BW - any interest on here?

    350R and 5BW 6sp owner here - what the heck are you thinking?? Unless financially you need to get rid of it, why? I've driven a lot of incredible cars over the years and my 5BW is amongst the most engaging and best. Maybe you need to spend a few more miles driving it to bond with it. It took...

    [Now Available] AWE SwitchPath™ Exhaust for the Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing

    Dude that sounds fantastic!! It's hard to make V6s sound good but they nailed it. Man, I cannot wait for the 5BW version!

    CT5-V What wheels are these??

    E46 M3 came with 18s standard or 19s as a factory upgrade (with the hugely heavy wheels). Current G80 M3 Comp uses 20s in the rear and 19s up front. I have run tons of different wheels and tires on high performance cars over the years and yeah, 22s are now part of the lexicon of high...

    CT5-V What wheels are these??

    26.3" for OE 305/30/19 and 27.2 for 305/30/20 PS4S per Tirerack. The weirdo 305/25/20 is only 26" tall.

    CT5-V What wheels are these??

    The listed 305/25/20 tire size is going to be a tough one to find decent tires in. 305/30/20 is super popular but that's an inch taller tire than OE.

    Media dumps

    It's interesting the part of their discussion starting about 17:05 where the passenger (Mark) starts describing the rear suspension "walking" over undulations in a straight line - several of us have discussed this sensation in other threads with our basic 5BWs and I was hoping the PP would cure...

    What did you trade?

    Excellent, thank you. I had a semi epic solo test drive of a 2018 AMG GTR a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it (I'm 6'2"). But I have trouble justifying the massive price difference between the S and the R and I'm not sure I want to deal with the complexity of the rear wheel steer and...

    What did you trade?

    Woof woof! The AMG GTS is on my short list for a car in the next year or two. Would appreciate your impressions especially comparing it to your 5BW if you have time.

    I have driven on the OE tires in the 30s and wet and didn't die . . . but you do have to be a little careful.

    Come to think about, there are plenty of guys running non-standard tire sizes like 325s that are taller and I haven't heard of any ABS or stability control freakouts. But do your due diligence.

    I am personally unaware of any such issues but I haven't researched it. It wouldn't be a bad idea to speak to your service advisor and see what tires they recommend for their 668hp, 205mph supersaloon. If you buy what they tell you, it would be hard for them to argue with warranty issues.

    CT5-V 5BW new tire time - discussion

    There is a big thread about that very problem somewhere on this forum if I recall. If I needed an AS tire, I would look at the Michelin AS4 and run the factory size 275/35/19 up front and a 285/35/19 in the back. Slightly taller but slightly narrower tread in theory. However, when that 285...

    CT5-V 5BW new tire time - discussion

    Please don't take this as me being a jerk, but Invos weren't true grippy high performance tires when they came out, what, 15+ years ago? And the 555 G2s are not particularly well respected as anything but an inexpenisve tire. The drag style 555Rs and such are supposed to be incredible in...

    CT5-V 5BW new tire time - discussion

    Info about the TPC-spec tires. Basically, they have some of the SportCup2 compound in the tread. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2021/06/2022-cadillac-blackwing-sedans-feature-unique-michelin-tires/
