Go to tirerack.com and look at all the wheels there, you can even do a "view on vehicle" to see them better....

18s look the best on Montes in my opinion. Leaves enough tire where as 20s and 22s don't have enough sidewall for me. 20's do look good but I think you'd be happier with the ride quality of that extra sidewall by going with 18s.

i think mine are 3 or 5 layers off chrome but cant remember i have had them for more than 5 years and the still look brand new but i would go chrome cause if you look at my rims all i do is clean them with soap and then dry them it so easy ...no polishing .. ever so ofton ill put some wax on them but that is it and i have aluminuim on my truck and HATE TO TRY TO KEEP CLEAN THEY SUCK!!!!!!!!!JUST WORDS OF ADVICE THOUGH
