Vogue tyres on a Caddy are nice! I don't think they make them for mine last time I checked though

I was seriously second guessing my decision yesterday because I could’ve easily got them instead. Of course it would’ve been about an extra $1,200 dollars but damn Vogues are on my bucket list and you only live once.

Coupe Deville is on 15” right? They gotta make em for that car. They have them for 85 Eldorados, at least I’m pretty sure they do.

[Bill D]

Yes the Coupe is on 15s. It's been a while since I tried looking them up. Maybe I should try again. I have big problems with that car though, one of the wheel covers is stuck on. I've been trying to remove it for *years* I'm hoping my tire shop can get it off. But in the mean time I gotta get tires for the Honda first.

How is it stuck on?
Worst case scenario take it to the dealer and tell em you want a tire rotation. They sure as hell better be able to remove it or at least you know they’ll replace it if they gotta break it. Lol.

Years ago I needed a water pump changed and the local radiator shop couldn’t even take the damn thing off. Called me up after half a day to tell me that… You gotta be kidding me. I have the worst luck that’s why I no longer let shmucks work on my car. Lol.

Years ago I must not have seated the locking nut properly and now it's on lopsided making it impossible to move especially with the flimsy plastic keys I have.

I'm hoping the dealer or the good tire shop here has a professional tool to go in there and spin it off.

It's something that's been on the back burner for a while but I need to tend to my Honda first.

Reminds me of yesterday. They pull my car up once it’s done and 1 of the centercaps is so loose that it’s dangling off the wheel.. It’s a good thing the supervisor noticed it because those centercaps are about as rare as hens teeth nowadays and if you happen to find 1 they want a couple hundred for it. Lol.

[Bill D]

A couple hundred! Wow! I think mine are still a bit more reasonable.

Yea, you gotta figure they quit making these wheels probably well over 10yrs. ago. Company no longer exists.

Last time I checked Offer up there was 1 person selling 1 for $150

[Bill D]

Don't go anywhere where they might get stolen.

So I can’t leave my driveway?lol.

I just checked, and these days you can buy a whole set of this brand wheels including centercaps for as low as $400.
But no one’s currently selling the ones like mine in 20’ so we get into hens teeth territory for the time being. Lol.

I feel good at least I’ve got a spare wheel & tire in the trunk.
