White08H3 - Actually, always drove DeVilles. For me, the Escalades are just too big. Which is why I went with the H3. More manageable. And I'm an enormous fan of the lines on this vehicle. Very sharp and pronounced. I suppose I should change out the shoes. As of now, I have 20" rims with a Nitto Terra Grappler wheel. Rides like a tank, sounds like a tank. Which is why I was posted this thread. That type of ride is not ideal for ME. However, it came with that setup. I'd prefer 22"s. But I hear the wheel on a 22" (45 max) is less forgiving. I figured I could account for that less forgiving ride by switching it up with an air ride suspension, but am unfamiliar if a 4WD vehicle can accommodate a bagged suspension.
Interesting. A co-worker just bought a CTS and loves it. It has an incredible ride and feel. For a real caddy "feel" you are talking a lot of dough I think in the H3. I am not familiar with air ride systems, however the ones I have ridden in feel like you are sitting on a cloud.

Hmmm . . .
White08H3 - Love those CTS's. Handle like a sports car, ride like a DeVille. I've heard anything up to $15k. Glad to have bunny2121's input. Agree with the air suspension ride quality. Definitely like a cloud.
bunny2121 - Exactly what I was trying to find!! This will be a great point of contact. I don't mind the $5k so much. The feel of the ride is worth the money, IMHO. I'll give them a call. Appreciate your assistance. By the way, those 24"s look bad ***. Nice choice!
