For a nice refined look I would go with 18 inches. There will be many tire brands in that size for you to choose from. If you want to be more pimpish then 20 inches is the way to go. For tires, take a look at the Delinte D7's. I run them on my 08 Charger and the handle nicely. A set of 4 255/45/20 cost me a little over $500 for the set, mounted and balanced which is a great price. Hope this helps.

The Delinte D7 tires that I suggested provide a firm yet enjoyable ride. I researched them for a while before I purchased them and I have no complaints at all. Very little road noise, they handle rain very well and they are cost effective. Max said he didn't want to spend a lot of money to do all these conversions and this brand will allow him to purchase a quality tire and stay within budget. I do agree that low profile tires will give a stiff ride but the sidewall on these tires is more than enough to give him a comfortable ride even with his big Caddy. I wouldn't recommend something I haven't used. I also have these on my 03 Deville in a 245/45/20 and she rides just like a Caddy should.

Take it to a 4x4 shop and jack it up until you need a ladder to get in it.

I got 245/40Zr20 on the front and 255/40/20 on the back in my 2000 deville dhs the front rub from inside when turning and the back is cutting my tire lemme tell you why because my back ones are to wide so you will need ti make sure you get something not to wide so it goes in wheel well and not stick out so the fender part of rear comes down on tires also make sure your airbag struts arnt worn out because they will scrape honestly as long as your suspension is tip top shape i dont see a problem with you fittin 23s perfect on your guys cadillac cadillac dont worry bout the air bags they wont hit your tires unless they are worn out then get your suspension in tip top shape before you throw rims on i just had breaks plus replace my rear air bag struts and only cost me 300$ installation and everything
