update

Wheels WILL wear. Do not be discouraged when your wheels, depending on the color begin to loose its shade, or get small chips. This is normal everyday wear, but with the proper care, prevention of these damages are plausible.

New Wheels

So, I just got new wheels for my 2008 Cadillac Escalade, and I have to say that 2 Crave makes some pretty nice alloys. I went with 24" to really make the truck stand out, and for those of you wondering why I did not go bigger, modifications would have to have been made to the body, and I did not want to risk that. Plus, they might rub. I went with pirelli scorpion tires. The quality of ride did not change much at all, but I must point out that at higher speeds (85 mph and up) ride begins to get a little shaky), not that you are going to be going that fast anyway right? Anyway, just checking in, and like I said in my last blog post, contact me or leave a comment with any questions regarding your new set of shoes (wheels) haha.

After Buying Your Car...


After buying your car, the first thing most people look at is whether or not they want a set of wheels to match their car. Most wheels out there are to better the performance aspect of your car, while others will decrease, for example make the quality of ride sloppy. It is very important to take into consideration how much the car will be driven, and in what environment. Some wheels are more for show, and will actually decrease your cars fuel economy and decrease the ride quality. 

Great brands to look for when buying wheels are but not limited too: Giovanna, MHT Alloys (foose, DUB, 1tone), Asanti, Lexani, Techart, BBS, R1 racing, raceline and much more. Its up to you to decide your car's primary use. For any questions leave a comment and I will respond as quickly as possible.
