My 2001 came with 215/70-15" Tires, but I wasn't happy with the way they handled, so I put 225/60-R16's mounted on Cadillac STS Wheels on the car, and it drives much better, and looks better with the nicer wheels as well.

Depending on the style you like, many of the GM wheels will fit, as long as they have a 5 bolt pattern (5x4.53in/115mm), enough Offset (40 to 45mm), and Backspacing (5.8 to 6.6") to clear Brake rotors and Body panels, up to an 18" 235/50-18 Wheel/Tire combination.

You can go to www.tirerack.com, and check to see which Wheels will work for you by clicking on a specific Year, Make, and Model, and looking at the sizes of the Aftermarket wheels, to see if they meet the above criteria.

If you just want to stay with the Stock 15" wheel, then try to go with the ta.llest, widest tire that you can fit on that Wheel, say a 225 or 235/60-15, because the car will handle better, and the Tires won't wear out as fast.

Hope this helps.
