Escalade OEM Style 24" wheels

[teejayone]

Hey Everybody. New guy to the website. Tried a search and didnt find anything....

Anybody running these stock looking 24" Escalade wheels? If so, how do you like them. Any issues? Thinking about putting them on the wifes 2009 Denali XL.

I've been wondering if anyone here is running these too.

Here's another bump. I've be wondering how they are, too. I think the stock Escalade wheels look great, think they look large by virtue of the spokes being set at the lip of the rim, and think that this wheel in 24" would be better in every way.

....Except that they've GOT to be heavy.

I am very curious. I wonder it the chrome will hold up? Or if will will flake off in a year.

Im running it on my escalade. Have had it for about a couple months now. No complaints. The finish is very good. It does come with a 3 year chrome warranty. We'll see how that works out. Look alot better in person.

Wow! Looks nice!
What size tire are you running? How is the ride compared to the stock 22" ? Did you buy them from ebay (on ebay it looks like its the same 1 or 2 guys posting these wheels). Or did you buy them somewhere else? I was just worried about the quality. Sometimes when you buy from these smaller guys their customer service or getting warranty work is non-existent....

I found the guy on ebay and actually found the company that made the wheels and picked up the wheels up in person in California. The company looks legit with a store front and everything. http://www.calchrome.com/ is the website. I couldnt really tell the difference in ride quality at all. Tire size is 305/35/24

They have black too......

I'm trying to decide between these and the Slides..... I know a ton of you guys have Slides.... but you don't see them as much local. Are the slides too "open" so that you see rotors and calapers too much in your opinion?

Doesn't $3k seem a little steep for these?

I agree, I would have bought these already, but can't believe the price. These should be going for no more than 2k with tires

agreed...im getting 26s for $3k. I used to have the Slides before they came out...i ended up buying them from a guy who did the SEMA denali for KMC...now everyone has them. They are a sick wheel tho...

i have slides and you can see the rotors and calipers..that's why you get slotted and dimpled rotors..a caliper upgrade would be nice too! people will look at the chops and see the rotors and know you mean business...it is better to have brake upgrades with wheels that show the brakes..the rusty stockers look nasty imo
