The new 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V is an absolute beast of an SUV, charging up the road with a supercharged V8 heartbeat and the styling to match. Now, GM Authority is taking a closer look at the different wheel options on offer for the new 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V.
The 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V is equipped as standard with 22-inch 18-Spoke alloy wheels with an After Midnight Finish and Laser Etching, tagged with RPO code SMM. These wheels have a technical design that fans out from the center cap in a V-shaped pattern, giving the top-performer Escalade an aggressive appearance and complementing the SUV’s dark trim with anAfter Midnight finish.
Beyond the standard wheels, the 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V is available with two additional 22-inch wheel designs as optional equipment, starting with the 22-inch Forged Multi-Spoke alloy wheels with a Satin Graphite Finish and Laser Etching. These optional rollers also incorporate a fanned-out design similar to the standard wheels, but include further detailing in the spokes themselves, thus creating an even more-complex, technical look. The finish is also lighter than that of the standard 22-inch Midnight Finish wheels.
The last wheel option is the 22-inch Forged Multi-Spoke Polished alloy with a Dark Android Finish and Laser Etching. These wheels have the same spoke layout as the first optional wheel design, but incorporates a two-tone finish that matches bright and dark hues to create a contrasting appearance. What’s more, the polished spokes make this wheel option effectively the brightest wheel choice available for the 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V.
As a reminder, the new Escalade-V is also equipped with more-aggressive styling for the front and rear fascias, while complementary performance upgrades include Magnetic Ride Control 4.0, Air Ride Suspension, and plus-sized Brembo brakes. Motivation is sourced from the supercharged 6.2L V8 LT4 gasoline engine, which is rated at 682 horsepower and 653 pound-feet of torque.
Under the skin is the GM T1 platform, while production takes place at the GM Arlington plant in Texas.

All rim choices are gorgeous but I’ll take the third option: Forged Multi-Spoke Polished alloy with a Dark Android Finish and Laser Etching.
So basically same wheels as a base lol so stupid
For the premium they are charging, the wheels aren’t unique enough.
For comparison I’m talking BMW M/Mercedes-AMG/Audi RS wheels compared to their regular vehicle wheels.
