NEED YOUR HELP in choosing rims.

Hey Guys and Gyals,

I know this is NOT G related....but

I just bought an 05 ESV Platinum in black.

I had 24's on my 02 (I think they were called) BOSS 313, the ride was OK nothing to complain about.

Now for the esv im looking at 2 sets (pics below)
Davicni 24's or
Verde 26's
I've heard ride on 26's is ROUGH...but the guy who owns them said not much worse than the 24's

Your help and input is GREATLY appreciated!
Cheers

24's (This is a 2007 esaclade...Mines a 2005 (older shape)



26's

I'm not a fan of either but if I had to choose between the 2 I would go for option 2.
Try looking at something a little more unique, I can't understand why everyone has to put chrome wheels or there Escalades its getting a little borring, why not go for a black center or a Satin silver center.

^ I agree, about every Escalade I see that has rims has chrome wheels, change it up get wheels the same color as your whip.

+3 ^ agree with GMan and Gcoupe and RBull.
Too much bling-bling, would look much better and more priginal with Hyper Black or gunmetal type finish or something other than chrome..

The second option is the best by far, but I still don't care for the chrome look. Additionally, I've never understood the desire to eliminate the side wall from truck tires.
