    New Rears, or just replace the one tire

    If you do get both tires replaced, ask them to give you back the good one. Nice to have an extra tire if you get another flat a year or two from now.

    Aftermarket Air Filters

    I have only found the Green filters but they require oiling. Like you, I would love to find a reusable dry filter option.

    EOS Carbon Fiber

    I should have asked which EOS you meant as I recall running across a video on their spoiler when searching for an Exhibition of Speed install video on YouTube. If you do get their CF parts, please share pics and your thoughts. EDIT: here is the video from YouTube

    EOS Carbon Fiber

    Multi-page thread on the EOS rear spoiler here: https://www.cadillacvnet.com/forums/threads/finally-ct5-v-blackwing-reproduction-spoilers.2488/ I have one and it looks good. Seems like high quality. I like that it is secured by bolts as I think just keeping it attached with tape is not a...

    2025 5BW - PTM Pro?

    From what I have read, PTM Pro debutes on the 2026 Corvette. So I doubt it is on the 2025 BW. Maybe on a future software update?

    New 5 BW Owner here

    congrats on the 5BW! Not sure what you mean by not fitting in the seats. If they are feeling too tight, the side and bottom bolsters are adjustable. You might just need to set them to not be as tight.

    When Do You Change Your Oil?

    Oil life went from 100% to 96% after around 150 track miles and 100 highway miles.

    Just a standard set of OEM wheels that I got for a good deal.

    2025 5-BW Precision Package Questions...

    It was actually a cool day under 70F. We don’t typically get hot weather up here in the PNW. The tires still got really gooey and picked up anything not glued to the road. A few hot laps scrub them clean. The wear seems good with the track camber. A guesstimate is about 150 track miles...

    2025 5-BW Precision Package Questions...

    Here is what my tires looked like after one track day. They are Goodyear Supercar 3R. Camber is 2.8f and 2.0r.

    F/S '23 5BW 6 speed

    Car looks awesome! Love the manual and no sunroof spec. You should post in the forum below as it is specific for V-series car sales. Also a few people have WTB posts for manual 5BW where you might want to reply...

    After market rims CT5BW

    Awesome! It looks like 22-24 and 2025+ all use 433hz. So what I have should work. I will try the clearing the error through the infotainment app next time I mount those wheels.

    After market rims CT5BW

    I also have a ‘25 and have issues with getting the TPMS to work with different rims. I did not think to check for an error message in My Cadillac app. I do not have a reprogramming tool so I will have to try it just doing the reset. Do you recall the part number of the TPMS units you have...

    2025 5-BW Precision Package Questions...

    Apparently the BW CCB require weighing. What a pain. If they form a lip when they get worn like iron rotors do then that will be a good visual indicator. I can usually tell when my iron rotors need replacing before measure the thickness.

    2025 5-BW Precision Package Questions...

    I can confirm that the CCB do create a fair bit of brake dust during a track day while almost zero dust when just driving around town. So I believe the comment about CCB having the same life span as iron for track use is probably correct. However, a Porsche owner I spoke with who has CCB on...

    Blackwing-spec PS4Ss heat cycle out long before wearing out?

    I just ran the Goodyear Supercar 3R tires at the track. The 305 size on the rear was the TPC spec tire which was the front on the ZL1 1LE. The 285 front was just the standard 3R spec. I have not run the Cup 2 R tire, but compared to the regular Cup 2, the 3R seemed grippier with good...

    TPMS sensor part #?

    I installed 13554170 on a set of wheels and they did not sync with my 2025 5BW. I wanted to let 2025 owners know just in case something changed with the new infotainment unit. I will update once I figure out the issue.

    Doing my part! 😂

    The MK8 VW GTI and Golf R had a 40-50% take rate on manuals in the US. But they killed the manual when the MK8.5 came out this year. There was no additional R&D costs so it seems confusing on why they would give up half their sales. But I believe there are a few reasons. First, is that...
