Going through my info for the CTSv, I noticed that there are dealer installed shocks available for $1260. Anyone know about these? Konis perhaps?

In addition to the shocks, there are forged wheels, Corsa exhaust, cross drilled rotors, and carbon fiber appearance kit for the engine available and all dealer installed.

Some pretty nice stuff if you ask me.

 

Has someone solved the dreaded wheel-hop issue?

 

I think that issue has been over inflated. When GM had us beating the hell out of them last week, I didn't get any wheel hop and only noticed it on one fellow driver whos driving skills were...less than adequate for a six speed 400hp Caddy.

 

I get bad wheel hop in mine and I fail to see how you have to be experienced to dump a clutch at 3500rpm's? No its not a big deal. I have learned to drive around it and it has problably made my 60ft times better because of it, but ut is there. Every hard 1-2 shift I have made, and every clutch dump I have made. I installed a set of air bags in the rear and with 25psi in em they haven't helped much.

The car is faster than my Vette, more fun to drive, and I love the car to death, but I'm not gonna deny the wheel hop. My car has yet to smoke the tires, but thqats not my thing anyways.
