How do these Wheels look ???
on the wheels. I think a black wheel with natural finish outer rings and chrome lug nuts/center cap would look good on a black car.

I agree with 03 SSLE, although chevy stuff always looks better on chevys but! I had a '87 SS and saw a Hot Rod feature with a "87 with American racing torque thrust wheels,black spokes with chrome trim and it looked freaking awesome! always wanted to do that!
There is a guy that's local, and has 4 18" torque thrust wheels off of his mustang and only wants $65 each for them.. (With tires !). I think I'm jumping on them tomorrow....

I personally would get FORD MUSTANG wheels than Camaro wheels, and I have a Camaro myself. The reason I say this is because Mustangs and other RWD Ford stuff have the same bolt pattern and center bore as the Monte Carlo and most of other FWD GM stuff. So you could easily put bullitts on your M/C or Cobra wheels (Which BTW would look awesome on your M/C). The only thing you need to worry about is that if the wheel is 18x9, it will stick out a little bit because these cars are high offset (I think +42). While the Stang's low offset (+21) fits with no problems when upgrading wheel sizes, the overall diameter of the wheel is higher. You may get away with that on your M/C but I know I can't on my Cutlass so I just thought I should mention it since the cars share the same basic structure (W body).
Just test fit them before buying on the FRONT wheels to make sure, although it's a good idea to test fit on both locations. The reason I say the front is because usually the front wheel area has more stuff around it that may hit it with a bigger wheel.
Also, don't do the Camaro wheels, it will look goofy with the wheel sticking out. I don't think these cars can fit the big Camaro wheels (20x10 IIRC), not to mention it will stick out even more with an adapter.

Couldn't agree more, I abandoned the Camaro wheels weeks ago... Going to go with the Mustang wheels as they look AWSOME !

As far as you abandoning the idea or not, I didn't know if you had backed down. The sad thing about photoshop isthat you can put the style however you want BUT you can't account for offsets and wheel width. A friend of mine was going to sell me 18" Cobra wheels for my Cutty but they were an inch too wide and stuck out bad.
