Hey guys and gals-

I'm thinking about getting these wheels for the Escalade in a 23x10 inch..
they are Lorenzo L08 wheels.. tell me what you think..
The wheels look similar to the factory wheels..

Style is ok. Nothing special.

They kinda look like knockoffs to me...I'd keep looking....my .02 cents.

pretty plain jane. If you are going to spend that much money and get 23s, get somethin pimp.

I think the simplicity might work well for you. What made you pick 23" and not 22" or 24"?

Thats exactly what I'm looking for... I am not on that likes Flashy wheels with big crazy designs, and spinners... I like the Monoblock style benz amg looking wheels...

The reason I am thinking more along the lines of 23" and not 22 or 24 is because 22 looks too small on the Escalade and 24 needs 35 series tires and I feel more comfortable with 40 series tires on a big SUV...

Gotcha! I was just curious if there was less tire selection for a 23 compred to 22 or 24. I don't know much about large rims and tires, but I would assume a 23 is a rarer size.

i don't like those rims but then again if i saw a pic of them on an escalade they would probably look better to me. did you ever find the grill you were looking for?

Throw these bad boys on in it.......

Yes I did.... $750.. Its pretty damn steep in price, but I love the look of it...

am ordering that along with my Corsa Exhaust on the 16th of this month..

just because its an escalade, doesnt mean you have to get chrome. is such a cliche nowadays.

Whatever you get, I'd make sure they're forged rims if I were you.

Also, make sure you have enough sidewall... Heavy truck + short sidewall = blowout on any pothole or anything you hit...

Don't forget to try to get the same overall diameter or recalibrate your speedometer.

again, not trying to be a hater, but something to consider:

Wow, very good article! I have never even thought of some of the things it mentions.

I was actually looking for some silver 23's or 24's but there are not many available..

 

[KaPGuN 5speed92]

heck, i say be unique and go for the off- roader look. 33" Mickey Thompsons on some 10 hole wheels. 5" lift, brushguard with a winch...

 

[Kylefire5]

just my opinion i like the wheels where you can acually see the rotor there are fine if thet is your taste i just dont like them
