I found a deal on a used set of standard cts wheels and tires off a 2012 coupe awd. Does anyone know if they will fit. Plans are to use them for winter use

Same bolt pattern, base and v so theoretically they should

What about offset/ brake fitment?

Brake fitment is an issue I believe. Could be wrong. Test fit.

So I tried on wheel on the front. It bolts right up and hits the front of the caliper. I wonder if wheel shims would allow it to fit. Not sure I want to use shims though

Weapon X hub centric spacers.

Found another set off a 2016. Looked up the offset and it says 18x8.5 with a 32mm offset. Can anyone confirm that they will fit our calipers?

I'm of the opinion they will not clear the calipers.

The CTS 19" wheels will fit with a 10mm spacer & longer wheel studs.

Not sure the 18's will.

Deal fell through. All three tires were the same except one. One tire was a different size which makes no sense and would probably cause abs issues

Well I’m of the opinion that it would look like shit on a V. But, I’m all about aesthetics #Justsayin

Agree that the wheels would not compliment the car at all. Was just trying not to spend 1k or more on a winter set

If you want cheap wheels, I have some ugly ones that came with my V with winter tires.I replaced them when I needed new winter tires. They're a square setup.

Agreed on the ugly factor. Thanks for the offer. I will have to pass for couple reasons. Ugliness and distance. I am planning on getting a set of 18” mb crux on discount tire. Need to make sure they will clear the calipers
