    Help! Looking to upgrade stereo

    I thought it would be simple to replace/upgrade the factory stereo. I'm finding that if I want to maintain my steering wheel controls, I'd need a special adapter, but can't seem to locate one for the XLR. Has anyone here done this, & if so, would you please share what you did, what parts were...

    New wheels

    Got it sorted! 19x8.5 with 255/35's up front & 20x10 with 285/30' in the rear. Had to use (make) 7.5mm spacers on the rears to avoid rubbing the inner well liners.

    Base tire sizing

    I'm running 255/35/19's up front & 285/30/20's in the rear. What you're looking at will fit noooooooo problem!

    New wheels

    OK. Thanks! I'm having a difficult time figuring out the right offsets to get a "flush" fitment. I'm going with staggered front to rear as well. 19x9 up front & 20x10 in the rear. Getting the proper offset is critical to the tire fitment & overall look. Vette wheel specs don't "seem" to work...

    top 5 "must do" upgrades/fixes for the XLR

    In regards to the C6 Z06 Wheels, What sizes? 18 x 9.5 + 40 offset & 19 x 12 + 59 offset? Were the any fitment issues? Spacers needed? What size tires did/do you run front & rear?

    Thank you! Thank you! Yeah, I'll be careful with the nose for sure. I'm used to dealing with low, long noses on cars. (Look in my garage!)

    Thanks SO much for the info! I'll take all I can get. This isn't my 1st build. But it IS my 1st Caddy/ Nothstar build.

    ANOTHER "Nube" here!

    Thank you! Thank you!! I'm excited to start learning about this fabulous machine! I've already discovered that front & rear sway bars are a must! Gotta learn how to lower the rear a bit, find the right wheels (offset advice would be great!) cold air intake (suggestions??) & get my exhaust done...

    New Owner in Phx

    Hi! I'm in Buckeye, Az. Just got my XLR this past Saturday. I'm looking for other owners to meet up with. Do you ever go to "Pavs" on Sat nights in Scottsdale? It's an awesome car meet with hundreds of cars & thousands of spectators every week. Hit me up if you're ever interested in meeting up!

    ANOTHER "Nube" here!

    Just got my 06 XLR on Saturday! (FINALLY!) It's Xenon Blue with Cashmere & Slate interior. I'm really looking forward to getting "into" the car! She's not going to stay stock for long. But I'll preserve all of the original parts. I've already added it to the Registry & posted an album to get...
