Is there a difference between a cts spare, and a cts-v spare (if it exists?) I've seen both mentioned, and listed for sale in the past...
There is no CTS-V spare. My thread title is wrong, I asked the admins to fix it but no one did.

Thank you for clarifying... Not sure if it says somewhere in your thread? That explains why I could never find CTS-V spares.

While research the Cadillac spare I came across a thread saying the wheel, tire, tools and jack were around 40 pounds.

I ran sux2bu's wheels and tires I bought from another member and actually just sold them. I had to cut the little weights off the front brakes to clear them with spacers

They are actually lighter than Welds. Only reason I got rid of then was because I wanted matching wheels and found a killer deal on some Welds.

Double checked and this correct

From what read the GTO spares will also work and are 1.5 lbs lighter.
The Gto spares are a tad lighter. I believe Rhino runs them. I think he has v6 brakes up front. I'm not sure if they are needed for that wheel or not. Aren't they 17"?

They will not fit with Brembos. Well, I guess you could make them fit with a giant spacer, but that would make them quite a bit heavier and defeat the purpose.

That's what I was thinking. You need V6 brakes to run them.
