I need opinions on a new set of wheels, there are 108 different styles on Tirerack and I can't decide! The only set I keep coming back to is this (below). They are a simple design and most likely easy to clean? I wanted to get the 04 Earnhardt Jr wheels but I'm not really sure. I might have to make a poll for this, any thoughts would be great on the below set before I make a poll.....



I'm not into wheels that need a ton of extra care and lots of flashy-ness, feel free to make comments on any and all wheels that may look good on my Monte......

You think so, I'm not looking for anything very fancy, just a nice looking wheel for the summer only!

edit: I really like the red along the bottom of your car, it's something I would really like to do!

Chris I like your current wheels, but those look good as well.

Todd, the current wheels are kinda junky (pitted) and they usually only show up on junkstangs, I'm very close to hitting the "check-out button" on tirerack!..

The wheels you have now are a classic design that many of the old muscle cars had. I forget about the problems you guys have with pitting back there. I can't wait to see what you get.
