Default Should I get Crager SS' or RocknSS style Wheels?

After RJ posted the Crager SS wheels, I started really liking them.. and I really like both sets of wheels now. Somebody once told me about clothes that "nothing looks good on a hanger". I think the same can apply to wheels... "no wheel looks good on a shelf". I didn't think a classic style Crager SS would look good on a Monte... but this guy makes it work. So the question... which wheel is better? The Crager SS, or RocknSS' American Eagle 077's?




Here is RocknSS:





And here is hte picture of teh 077's photoshoped on my car.. I have decided that since my tires are so new, I will keep them so I'm going with 16's....



And here are my stock rims, in my signature.

Once again, I want an honest opinion please. I will not hold it against anybody if they don't like either rim. And Space, no you may not split your vote between the rims... I know my car looks good no matter what

Hi Duane, I really like the Stock Rim's on your Monte Carlo SS.
It's your Money, and your Monte Carlo.
I would go with the rim that makes you the happiest.
Your present rims appear to be in super shape.
Good Luck in your decision.
The Beach/River `Bum's, & I think you should keep your awesome look'in
factory rim's, & use that money to `party : ), or for college : )
or a blow `up doll : )

well the rims would probably be a Christmas gift... my parents wanted ideas and I ran it by them... they want them to be a size that my current tires can fit on... else i have to buy tires

I agree. Find a set of 5 spoke factory wheels at an auto recyler near you!

I would dump the stock ones and get RocknSS, the 17" hi pro stock ones (found on ebay sometimes), or my personal fav the Foose Nitro series.

I'm liking the Crager SS wheels, so I had to tie it up.
