Hey guys and gals, Fellow Monte owners. I just bought my 4th Monte ss. I have had every color now....
I am thinking about putting some bigger tires on it. It now has the size that is says to have on the sticker. 215/65/15
What is the most common upgrade?

Welcome to the site. As far as what the most common upgrade is... Depends on what you want to do first...

Thanks guys,
I have read that p235/60/r15 is the most common way to go.. Any thoughts? My car is Stock with the exception of edlebrock headers and loue's custom flowmaster exhaust.

Welcome to the Forum.
As far as upgrades on the tire sizes.. I would run 60 series in the rear and 70 series in the front! That's just the hot rod way... IMO...

On your year of Monte Carlo...
I always liked the BF Goodrich radial TA's....
The look is unmistakable and says HotRod! But hey thats just me...
I would also like to see some Cragar SS's on it... Love the look of those on your year Monte! I would Get 15x 6 in the front and 15x7 on the rears.
How Bad Azz does this look?
Not only does this show TA tires...But with Cragars as well! Just a thought!
