That's exactly it. I grew up in Michigan with many people working at GM. To release a car that Michiganders can't even drive half the year is unconscionable to me. I'm having a hard time believing it, to be honest. It's disappointing.
I'll figure something out. Right now I'm looking at 20s...
I saw that once upon a time there were Cooper all-seasons in correct sizing, by they were discontinued quite a while ago... like years ago.
Thanks, but having one tire properly mounted and one stretched on an inch larger rim does not work for me, nor should I have to make it work.
Bold and...
Michelin ZPs (Zero Pressure) are run-flat tires, which are absolutely horrible.
I shouldn't have to look for a one-off all-season tire for an OEM application.
Other, more on-the-ball manufacturers (BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, etc.) have agreements with at least one major tire manufacturer to supply...
You mean the one with just three sizes?
Are you talking about the Michelin A/S 4 ZP run flats? Because I've never heard anything good about run-flats, no matter what brand...
You'd think that for a $100K+ vehicle Cadillac would have worked with Continental or Michelin to get at least ONE SET of all-season tires in OEM spec for the Blackwing, yes?
Instead, there is ...... nothing in A/S available for our cars.
There's "screwing the pooch", then there's GM... 😒
Uh, no. You're paying for the customer whose car has been there a year (cannibalized for parts for someone else's build) who has gone to court to sue them. Before the court date, they give the other person your money.... and so it goes, again again.
I can't believe: (1) they still advertise...
That is killer... almost like it was made for those tires. 😯
So, no rubbing whatsoever?!?
Are your fenders rolled?
Have you checked at the extreme yet (e.g. with two adults in the back seat, hitting a large depression at speed, etc.)?
No one has mentioned that CCBs have to get up in temp to brake properly – otherwise there is a risk of overshooting your mark when the brakes are cold.
Is that rumor, fact, or only applicable to older-designed CCBs?
Has anyone driven or ridden in a BW with the new Precision Pack option? Even a test mule, i.e. someone with a friend at GM, etc. would be good.
I am wondering if I should get this with my 2025 order. It basically makes the 5-BW a track car. My question is, what would it be like as a daily...
I configured both the way I wanted and they came within a few dollars of each other, so there is no discernible financial difference between the two of them.
Would any of you consider the M5 over the BW?

Not only looking for max tire (1) width, and (2) height, but also ideal offset/backspace.
Ideal meaning fit and max height/width with no rubbing at stock suspension height.
Anyone know of any wheel mfrs who have done this work?
I'm just a little perplexed that anyone is still committing to making an ICE – much less blown, and one of this caliber.
Not disappointed, mind you – just surprised.
