I thought this would be a cool thread to start. Here are some pictures I found of Buick Enclaves that have Afermarket Rims on them. Gives an alternative look at how your Enclave can look.
If anyone is not familiar with buying aftermarket rims the main problem is, you have no idea how they will look on your Enclave. Rim Shops will not let you try on 1 or 2 rims just to get an idea. So it's pretty much find a nice rim you like and hope for the best.

Enjoy the pics I found these on the web. If anyone else cares to add pics of "Aftermarket" rims on Enclaves go right ahead!!

What makes those rims stand out is the Enclave is painted the whole color. I mean the cladding matches the paint, which does add a nice effect. LOL I like the red one a whole lot! ;D

The 4th image shows Vogue whitewall tires........
Hmmmmmm, last I checked, Vogue Tyre does not make tires to fit the Enclave.

I'm sorry but please realize I am an old man. Between the large wheels with narrow sidewall tires and the interior mods that were just mentioned in a different post, I feel as though I am watching Pimp My Ride. It just isn't me but it is nice to have available for those who like it. I do like the all one color concept as I view that as being conservative and therefor is part of the reason I would never spend the money to replace the stock parts just because I can. For those who like it, please go for it and enjoy!

Well I like plus 2 look on the Enclave however. I would have to lower with progressive rate springs first.... But that is all I would do as this is not really a car I would take to car shows no matter how much I modded it.
I play with other cars

No need to say you're sorry, I'm considered "old" too and those wheels on the white Enclave with the narrow aspect ratio sidewall tires look like a joke. Just drive something like that with no "give" or "cushion" on the sidewalls and see how fast you are replacing damaged wheels !! :eek:hno:

Pimp my Ride is an excellent analogy. I was thinking more like just "Pimp" period. :cheers:

A traverse owner modded his..(though he hasnt been back in a while)...
seems twice. once to add new rims.
then painted the lower grey cladding, the roof rails were also painted, and larger diameter rims.

i got this Buick enclave.

i guess this is the latest release of buick. Bob Brown buick proudly present this new enclave. a step up from lexus. Buick set out to develop a new class of world-class, and they clearly succeeded with the 2011 Buick Enclave. Enclave is superior to the Lexus RX 350 in many ways that any auto repair . Here's a few examples:

Power: To ensure you have the power needed to overcome any conditions and accomplish any job, the Enclave’s 3.6L V6 engine generates more horsepower and torque than the RX 350’s 3.5L V6.
Convenience: To ensure you never ding your back bumper while driving in reverse or parallel parking, the Enclave comes equipped with a standard rearview camera. The RX 350 does not.
Comfort: To ensure all of your passengers are comfortable, the Enclave is equipped with rear climate control, front and rear bucket seats, and rear seat audio controls. The RX 350 does not.

Is this a spammer? or advertisement?

You know that is what I was thinking. Not as obvious as the others have been. :eyebrow:

Talk about rubber bands for tires.....would be afraid to drive it anywhere for fear of harming the tires, wheels, or both. Looks OK for show, but I think for practical purposes...it's not that great.
