I jus bought me the caddy rims and was wondering wat size tire u all are using? And does anyone know how to drill the center? Let me know! Thanx guys!

you have 2 options, get the center machined, or grind off the little stock tabs on your hubs, i ground down the tabs and my eskies fit like a glove. also about the tire, 215/45/17 will tuck

That's the same thing I did, and same tire size I have. Also a 215/40/17 look good on them, just a tad bit shorter if you're worried about height.

i had mine bored out it was about $140 bucks to get it donw but makes me feel better that the rime is hub centric not lug centric, menaing with the wheel bored out it actually sits on the hub, with grinding off the tabs you rely on the lug nuts lining up the wheel, but everyone has there own opinions on the matter, i also run 205-40-17 tires

Well they're lug centric wheels, not like the factory hubcentrics...so they work out fine.

true but you can never be too safe, also i forgot to mention you have to get a different lug nut, an acorn bulge type nut

if you hack out the front fenders, and the back of the box (will be for C-notch anyway) then yes
