Thanks. I haven't decided how much I like it. So many different rim and tire combinations look good. Decisions as usual lol.

Alright. Surprised nobody likes it. Everywhere I drive it I have been getting compliments like crazy, to each their own I guess. A Monte Carlo is a Monte Carlo

I'm not a huge fan of the rims. I'm not really into big rims or rims that have a colored background like that. But that's me. I know there are a ton of people out there who love rims like that.

I didnt want anything too big where I had to lift the car or have anything rub so I went with 20s and have no problems. The background was black but I had them painted to match the car.

I love the car, but I'm with a couple of folks that are not fans of the rims. Painting the background red I think was a great improvement (goes with the car).

The size looks reasonable, I just don't like that they have a background. I tend to like 5 and 10 spoke rims. With no background and some cleaned brakes I think it would look great.

Just my opinion.

Again, the car is sweet!
