    4BW General Questions Thread

    Yes I have this same sound and I find it extremely annoying. Note that I didn't have it when I got the car, but it was also the middle of summer, so temperature might have something to do with it. I've meant to complain to a service department about this and see if there's anything they can do...

    Camaro dead in 2024 - Blackwing next?

    I think the Blackwings, along with the regular CT4's and CT5's, are going to run their 4-ish year cycle and be gone, which is pretty much what everyone expected from the start.

    Car seats in 5bw

    Will echo some other comments here, have a rear facing seat in the back of a 4BW (Chicco, excellent brand), and it works just fine. The 5 has acres of space in comparison. As for seats themselves, we had a Graco ClickConnect with a couple of bases for the infant seat and they were great. Really...

    CT5-V What would you buy if you won $230,000 (tax free)?

    I'd buy like 50 janky miatas and make my own idiot racing series.

    reasons I think (unfortunately) our Blackwing-5's won't be the 'collector cars' with huge resale over time some think.....

    Respectfully disagree. The reason people are saying it's going to be a collectible is that we know with almost absolute certainty that the V8, manual rear wheel drive sedan will die with this car. Yes there's demand and they'll make a good handful of cars, but not so much demand because the cars...

    Wet mode turns off traction control?

    So this thread has me wondering if the Snow mode is really for snowy roads or actually for snowy tracks...

    Winter Wheels and Tires

    I have them on my car, 255 in front and 285 in back (no 275's were around at the time of buying). I really like them. They lose a tiny bit of steering sharpness, but make up for it with a tiny bit of noise reduction and ride quality improvement. They also lose that skittish feeling the PS4S's...

    Winter Wheels and Tires

    Figured I'd supply an update on my "winter" setup as well, Michelin Pilot Sport AS4, 255/35/18 in front, 285/35/18 on back (which fit perfectly). Very happy with the setup, still only feel like I'm giving up a tiny bit of steering sharpness from the PS4S's, but slightly better/quieter ride and...

    Ticking Noise on 4BW

    No I'm not taking it in til 12/6 since they didn't have a loaner available until then and I figured I'd couple it with an oil change

    What "don't" you like about your BW"?

    This doesn't really bother me but it is noticeable and after owning many cars that never had this issue I have to wonder "why?"

    Ticking Noise on 4BW

    Update: This noise is really pissing me off so I'm taking it to the dealer to get looked at. Fully anticipating a run-around. Smh

    Brake dust, repellent

    FWIW I spoke to a rep at R1 Concepts and they said they anticipated having a compatible pad for the 4BW sometime in 2023, since I was wondering about this same things and it now takes like an hour and 4 different brushes for me to really clean the wheels.

    Winter Wheels and Tires

    Update, after some hemming and much hawing, I opted to go with the the Michelin Pilot AS4's, 255/35/18 in the front and 285/35/18 in the back, since the 275's are unobtainium until well into the winter. Very initial impressions are positive. They are noticeably quieter and more comfortable than...

    Winter Wheels and Tires

    I'm hopeful if you had the same tire on a similar ATS and liked it. I had the original DWS06 on my G37x but wasn't a fan, but those were also squidgy tires with high sidewalls and the car was much less sporty in general.

    Winter Wheels and Tires

    Indeed, and avoid playing chicken with winter. I was accelerating onto the highway the other day when it was in the high 40's, brisk and wet and the tires were cold. I had a bowel-clenching moment at part throttle in third gear...
