And they look really good. Probably my favorite wheels on offer on the car.

They're 19 inch wheels, by the way.

I like the wheels but I dont think they suit the car at all to be honest.

It makes the car look much more eager.

Looks good, but I can't help but think I've seen those before.. give or take and inch or so.

That's a good way to describe it. More sporty, maybe?

Is it me, or are they Merc-ish?

I'm just a sucker for spilt 5-spoke wheels. Plus I'm not a fan of any of the other wheels on offer really, except the base model's 17 inch wheels.

I can see it, but Merc's come together towards the end.

Hey, I can see it now!

Yeah, they look similar, but I think Merc's more come to a point at the end while the ATS' stay pretty evenly open.

...I hate you. Cannot unsee.

They look better on the Cadillac though.

Yeah the other wheels suit it even less. I just think a car with such sharp lines would maybe suit a more complex looking wheel. Not that it's ugly in the 5 spokes.

Yes, but I like thinking outside the container (see what I did there). I see it as a lot more light footed with those wheels. Its exactly what happened here:

Meh. Call me when they put this in it.

Is a 400 horsepower Twin-Turbo V6 good enough? Because I think that's what's going in the V.

I'm hoping a 600HP CTS-V will change their minds on that. It would be perfect, the ads write themselves.

I like this idea better.

SOMEONE CALL CADILLAC.

Meh. Looks like something that belongs on a Mercedes or a BMW, not a Cadillac. This to me is not a good thing. Because it's a Cadillac.
