Am I the only one here that would be very content with a non supercharged version of the V8 from the CT5 BW and put in the CT4BW? To me that would be near perfect and reminiscent of the original CTS-V cars.
I believe the +45mm offset would poke 5mm less curb side.
Try this website to visualize it easier. I don't think anyone on the forums has had aftermarket wheels for long enough to know all the combinations that will/will not work; we're all new to this!

Doing a little of research, you could fun a 265/30/19 on that 19x9 +21 wheel; it'll given you 7mm more clearance inside the fender, and poke out 7mm more curb side. This is doable, my current wheels poke out 8mm front with no clearance issues.
Regarding the rear 285/30/19 on a 19x10+40 wheel...
If you can post some pictures that would be great.
Regarding repair/replacement, if light scratches then yes painting/powder coating may be reasonable. But if significant damage I would hold the dealership accountable for replacement parts as it happened on their time/location, not that you...
I'm in Michigan as well. This happened to me the other day after the first snow and the car sat in the garage overnight. I reversed and it felt like the parking brake was on (it wasn't). Took 2000+ rpm to break it free in reverse. Never had this happened before on any car I've had.
Regarding number 3, I had same issue in that my local Discount Tire wouldn’t mount a square tire set up on stock wheels for me. I ended up calling Tire Rack Mobile Installation and they came to my house and did the tire swap in my driveway! It was awesome and well worth the price, $30 to...
Yes I can confirm the FF05 wheels clear all brake calipers easily. I am running the original spec summer tires that are 255 front and 275 rear on these FF05 wheels. I have absolutely no rubbing issues front or rear. I’ve been driving on these wheels and tires set up for about 300 miles without...
6 months and I still hate the location of the electronic parking brake. Wish it was next to the shifter, like logic would dictate.
Also wish it started up in the last mode being driven...aka Touring, Sport, Track, etc.
I like this idea. I'm not brave enough to cut my muffler off yet, would prefer a bolt on replacement aftermarket exhaust once able. I like being able to revert back to stock if I change my mind.
Figured I'd join on the bandwagon and start a picture thread. Hoping other Electric Blue owners will post their figure, and future modifications here for others to see.
My car; Only aftermarket component right now are 18 inch Forged One Competition FF05 wheels.
Cheers,

Happy to help. It's taken a bit of effort to find out what fits/doesn't fit, as I even went to TireRack to have my car scanned a few months ago. Been a bit of a guinea pig (in a positive way) the last few months. Hopefully this helps other too.
Actually posted in the separate modifications forum, posting under aftermarket wheels:

Update, I ended up swapping Blizzak snow tires on the OEM wheels, and Michelin Pilot Sport summer tires on the FF05 wheels. No rubbing issues at all, setup works great!
Sky cool grey seats here, great contrast with blue exterior. I'm 5 foot 7 inches, 180lbs and find the seats fit fantastic. I had and E46 M3 Competition Package and find these Blackwing seats much more snug/secure than the BMW. Not nearly as bolstered or tight as Porsche carbon bucket seats...
I'll add something.
2022 CT4 BW. I originally bought these FF05 wheels with Blizzak snow tires but after seeing the wheels I liked them so much I swapped summer tires onto these, and Blizzaks on the OEM wheels.
Wheels: Forged One Competition FF05.
18x9.5 +20mm front. Michelin Pilot...
