Not usually a fan of big wheels but this escalade is clean as hell. Love the white calipers. Great job
In case you don't notice the color combo over the camera/youtube. The Dish is Powdercoated high gloss black. The face is Matte Black. The bolts are high gloss black as well as lug nuts. Floating caps set it off just right. Looks a lot better in person IMO though.
love them rims love the way the caps spin
Yeah
My man. You're literally the reason why i put money into my car. As in, audio. For years ive been watching your videos when you shook glass on that tahoe you had. I'm rockin two smd's two xs batts two capacitors 5 (psi) tweeters , 4 mids (crecendo) and three amps. Cant afford crazy expensive stuff. But definitely an inspiration! Keep up the amazing videos.
good luck with your builds Josue bro, i am sure that shit will be great!!! keep pushing forward and you will have everything you ever wanted, trust me. thanks a lot!!
FYI: the new 28" @forgiato 's ride 100% better than you think it does. I can shut any hater up with a ride around the block. Super smooth you cant even feel the road at 25 series off the pavement. The stopping power (and finesse while doing it) of the Wilwood brakes is something i can also only describe as amazing. So far NO REGRETS. And by the way, this ain't my first day on 25 series tires before you try to school me on what's good. :D Thanks for watching!
Very nice steve, question... why you didn't go just a little thicker on the rubber like 305/35/28 for a much smoother ride and avoid a possible bent rim?
no such thing and even if there was it would rub. Don't worry about the rim it will be fine. This ain't my first day on 25 series bro. thanks for the concern though! :)
SMD answered my thoughts before I even posted. :D
Forgiatos are superior man. I'll take no attempt at trying to school you
i plan on doing whatever i feel like doing when i feel like doing it. :)
Damnit Steve, you keep on motivating me to start on a project (a good thing lol). Can't wait to see what's next.
Can't wait to see your sound system. looking good!
Those white calipers look good when you're rolling, plus the floating center caps just ties it all together. good job Steve.
Escalade is looking real nice! NEVER disappoints and is meticulous with what he does which separates him from the rest...Much respect!
thanks a lot!
That is a one nice looking Escalade Steve, I love it!
Your caddy looks great Steve. Clean as always. I've always liked watching your videos and its shows hard work pays off.
thanks Evan!!
+meade916 your welcome Steve. I really enjoy all your videos. From demos, your audio upgrades from your Tahoe build,Lexus build and the dgaf build. Very entertaining.
Man, those Forgiato 28"s are DOPE!!!! I love the center caps!
thanks man!!!!
Meade is actually responding to comments. that's a good look. lac is clean
I'm not a fan of huge rims but that looks real clean. did you have to do any cutting or lift so it won't rub when turning?
Definitely done proper with the Wilwoods to boot! Nice work!
Buying rims has got to be one of the hardest purchases you do to your ride! With all the variety to choose from an trying to find the ones which you think will justify the amount of money you're gonna be shelling out, has to amplify the need to take your time! So much to choose from plus fitment, offset, color, tire, size, etc. You have to absolutely get it right on the first shot! I wish shops would throw 4 of your best options on each hub so you can actually have a visual on what your wheels would look mounted but that doesn't exist. So imagine what it's like when you actually find the ONE that you like and having the freedom to make it happen! Most of us will "settle" on some wheels that we really didn't want or settle for something because it was economical but to be able to get the product you actually took the time to dream up is PRICELESS!
Very nice, cant wait to see what you do to this truck next.
Looks good Steve.... I knew it wouldn't be long for you bro
finally someone with common sense to put wilwood brakes with the bigger wheels. about time! looks good
Your style is always on point bro keep it up bro fantastic job
Looking good Steve, can't wait for the audio portion of everything. I actually liked the stockies over the aftermarket wheels but that's just me. Love all you do bro.
not me man.... but the good thing is i don't hate the stockie's. I like them and they will chill by the lift for quick swap when needed. I will be just fine putting them on in times i need to use my caddy for something rougher (like dirt). Thanks!
Is there a difference in ride quality from the factory rims? Those black factory '22 rims look good also.
DAMN THATS CLEAN! I was worried about the 28s until now 😳
I'm debating on putting 26 or 28s on my 15' Suburban. I'm afraid the skinny tires on 28s will easily damage the rim if the road gets rough. anyone have experience with 28s and how fragile or not they are?
hay steve with rim and tire like that do you have to watch out for pot small holes and stuff or do you drive it like stock tire and rim?
visit my instagram channel! i always post stuff there first because it is easier instagram.com/meade916
Fuck off @Tanner Nunnelley
+Loltb typical hating ass clown foh goof ass 😂
+Loltb ah man, i hate swirl marks. First thing you notice in ths sun. Meade should do a full detail ASAP from a Good shop. Make sure to use new towels. I recommend jus do yourself, cant trust othets
What's the song slapping at 1:20 ?
Looks really good Steve!
SWEET RIMS! Did you have to recalibrate your speedometer at all for the new sized wheels? Watch for potholes and curbs on the low profile tires. Enjoy your new ride and rims as well👍🔥💨
did you had to cut the wheel well to fit the 28's, if you did, how much they charge, what size tire you got them ridin on?im looking to buy some 28's myself from this dude, forgiato inferno to be exact, but want to make sure if I need to do sum cutting, don't wanted to rub when I turn. thanks
@Meade916 do you have a Spotify playlist of your songs cause you have a lot of good ones 🔥
Are you planning to dip the chrome matte black
Man... CHOP CHOP CHOP! Looking damn good Mr. Meade!
thanks Roberto!
I know how hard picking the right wheels are! Perfect combo, ESPECIALLY with the Wilwoods!
had my heart set on this combo for a month before i got the caddy. I can't believe i made it happen :D thanks man!!
Hey STEVE, is there anyway to get these wheels in 26” to go on a 2018 Chevy Tahoe 6.2 Premier?
Meade! I need your help on a caddy! I have a 05 V and want to add a sub but retain the factory system, there has got to be something better to use than a line converter???! They always restrict a system at least in my experiences with them....
Damnn that's nice. I'm glad you did it the right way, when adding bigger rims. There's a dude in my area, with an Escalade on 30's, with STOCK rotors and calipers.
that seems to be pretty common. I never see brakes on ANYONE's ride except mine. Might see one at a show but even these fools with the sweet 34's on their toyota corrolla don't bother with it. Scary thinking about stopping one of those for sure.
Steve the 8's are straight bananas. The caddy is super sick loving it. Continue much success and mad props on the truck💯. Have a great weekend and look forward to more videos on the caddy build. I think some beat is in order soon huh? Lol. ✌️
thanks JustEnuf bro
Dam looks good Steve can't go wrong with them forgiato
Can't wait for the system build
Hard as fuck. Haters can say what they like but from a backyard youtube build, to an established business, international recognition and dope rides, you made it. Your way. Keep doing it.
thanks a lot Paul. I appreciate that to the fullest my bro. I can tell you have been around a minute just by that post. :D
keeping it clean Steve!! Just got a P Morrision CD from u today and it was autographed. Yeeeeeeuh
Fuck sakes Meade always doing it right man.
1. Sticks up for himself shuts down all the haters even if he don't need to
2. Got a car riding 28s and still looking clean AF
3. Floater caps finally
4. The tire profile on point. Prolly thick as some guys with way smaller wheels. Fuck all this BS about harsh ride
Respect
5. Word my bro.
6. Thanks man!!!
7. YEEEEEEEEEEE.
Forgi's!!? Wow you aint playin at all with this one! Definitely one of the cleanest new style Cadi's out right now.
ty good sir.
perfect combination. clean and simple!
super clean! are you going to leave the sound system stock?
LMFAO! Wheels and brakes are worth more than my car and system combined. Looks good man!
thanks man!!
What system u plan on doing in the caddy 2 15 I know u got something up your sleeve Steve lol looking good
Very nice Steve! Thanks for the video . Keep them coming . There are some of us that appreciate your work, the rest are just poor ppl that can't afford it. To all the haters 😐
meade916 people that have never rode on rims always have something to say. Its still smooth whether on 26s or 28s I rode them on my truck no complaints a lot of compliments.
I have got to say that shit LOOKS SICK. Great choice on the whole brake and rim/tire choice. Congrats to you.
thanks Don!!
beautiful truck man. keep it going, I've been a HUGE fan of escalades since they came out. probably gonna get me one, but it'll be the body before this one, can't afford the newer body. looks amazing tho man keep stuntin! 💯👌
Lol! Steve you be bussin heads! Do what you do fam!
Once again man, very nice
Oh man, those look goooooood~ They seem a bit plain on their own, but on the Caddy, they're really elegant and classy! I like 'em!
beautiful ride bro. im thinking about getting one too
Steve I have the same brakes you have on a 08 Escalade. Can you tell me what offset I need for 28in wheels and tires? Mine is lowered 2in front 3in back? I had some 28in Dub elite o it but the wheels were hitting the caliper. Can you please help me. Maybe let know what kind of wheels Will fit.
Sick ride Steve
shit is dope boy! I dig the little pop of white on the calipers and the mix of flat and gloss. I can't afford but much respect dude.
thanks Dale!!
Did you have to cut anything to make those 28s fit?
i know you are supercharging it next then system. what kind of system you going for wild or mild system? long time follower sick ish.yeaaaa
Is it possible to see the new Power Acoustik Razor series mono 2500watt amp tested? It's super compact and rated at 2500 watts.
Like with most cheap amps, they put the peak power number on the box, so they can have a big number for the uneducated people will buy it thinking that they're getting big power for not a lot of money. The max rated RMS power (Which is the real numbers that you want) is 1,400 watts on a 2 ohm load.
That's what I was figuring, just wanted to see it on the dyno. I bought it for 100 bucks to push a single soundstream R3.12 800rms 1600 max sub.
nice job, not a big fan of all black rims cuz it seems to diminish the true size of the rims, but the matte and gloss combo is pretty neat effect
Hi, any problems with the transmission with those 28s?
Damn steve meade is balling!
medium budget balling. I know people that are REALLY balling that make me look like a broke ass haha....but i am trying to climb my way up one day at a time.
Oh yeah I see what you mean, I'm also trying to make my up ☝ Hopefully one day though, I'll never give up.
What's the song used in the beginning? I've heard it in some other vids.
lol everybody making suggestions should know damn well by now Steve does whatever the fuck he pleases and won't take any shit from haters or people that think they know better. Keep doing what you're doing Steve, sick as always.
thanks Ayenus!
+meade916 bagging this one too?
Brakes look tiny with those massive rims. Car's beginning to look dope meade, good job. What's your next plans?
Floating center caps look dope.
super clean. how many subs you putting in the back?
Any plan on a new exhaust setup in the future?
One beautiful ride looks good 👍👍
Nice, glad you sprayed them black, suits the car. Any plan for the Escalade? Audio or maybe suspension? Air perhaps?
He said that he's not going to do air suspension, and that he's going to do an SQ audio build with a couple of 12s.
Flat4Buggy 2 Ahh I see, didnt know that. Thanks for answering though!
Zymh No problem.
Do they go straight on or do you have to do any mods
Those emblems on tire are killer man clean As Fuq never new they made them stay like that #DOPE HEADTWISTER
I think you should go head and black out the rest of the chrome. it would look crazy..Already awesome and big props on everything.i always dreamed of making a living same way as you .But I live in West Virginia and car audio isn't in high demand.i grew up in Florida and learned the craft and love for the art. Continue the great work
Are you gonna do a sound system like the Tahoe if so what are you considering putting in it
He's not going to do a SPL build like the Tahoe. He's going to do a SQ build like the Lexus. This time with a couple of 12s.
Super Clean Steve👍👍👍👍
Mr. Meade I like your taste! Things so clean ppl cheapen out with the floating cap. I'd also wrap the grille gloss black ;)
Dame it man,getting shit did Meade.brakes are so on point the make the 28's look stock lol
Hell yea! Lookin good man!
She badddd brotha! Well done!
nice set up them boys in Miami been on those forgi's
Super clean
Got to coordinate as always. looking good!!
Them brakes dont look so big anymore! Lol but lookin clean! just need to level out that suspension a little and it'll be on point. Keep it up steve! can't wait to see the system build
just curious , are you gonna do anything to the headlights or are you gonna leave them stock?
what could i possibly do to them to make them better? HID's? lol
meade916 sorry for the late ass reply but yeah like u did the tahoe
A Steve Meade are u gnna do a kickass system in that murdered out LAC? She str8 bro 💯👍👍
love the center caps
that is sweet!! How can anybody possibly hate I can't wait to see you do a sound system upgrade.. even though that factory sound system is nice but that might not be your cup of tea LOL
some people have no life. lol. thanks!
Are you going to be lowering the Escalade at all
Trend setter!! Nice and clean...
thanks jay!
The Caddy is a fvckin' beast Steve!
thanks a lot!!
Those rims are wrapped in rubber bands haha Nice Meade! I'm guessing air ride or maybe just springs in the future?
Looks clean
Dope as truck bro
Nice man looks real good
I have to 2 kicker 12s with hifonics Zeus 1500 they didn't hit like I want so now I'm looking for some old school Rockford fostgate 1000 watts
As a big wheel hater, i thought this was going to look bad. But it looks bad ass. It is really well done, and i'm sure it cost a fortune, but a 2015 Escalade is no economy car to start with. It may not be what i would do but nobody can deny it has been done perfectly.
looks good man
Not into aftermarket wheels, as I'm a mechanic and aftermarket is what makes life harder, but those floating center caps are dope as shit, dude.
