Buick Verano 18" wheels fit perfect and look a lot better than the original 17s. The old wheels are on my friend's Grand Prix now and honestly, they look great on that car.

Bought the 50hp tune from Trifecta and there is a noticeable difference in performance. Their trans tuning helped a lot.

Ive found that this car gets better mileage at 75mph than it does at 70. Someone explain that one to me, b/c I dont understand it.

Ive put off the "parts lightening" until later, as Im not having any new issues with the emissions. Most of the problems I had were due to one pressure sensor getting confused, so I bought a cheap code reader and erase the code if it comes up. No problems since.

Added factory nav silverbox and control head from a 2015 Equinox. Used an Ebay GPS antenna, and found a place that reprogrammed the nav for my car. Works great!

Just have to find a decent 5-ch amp for the stereo now. Then I should be done.
The wheels were a direct bolt on with no adapters correct? Any rubbing or other fitment issues? What size tires?

Thanks,
CT
