Evening all.

I am really drooling over these BBS CH-R wheels for my Monte, without to silver lip. I'm not sure how they'd look on a Monte though. Too bad the price is more than I'm willing to pay right now; about $650-$750 per wheel, not including tires. I'd go with a 19" or 20", depending on fitment and width. If I can remember correctly, you can get a 19x8.5 which is about as wide as I'd want to go. I'm not sure how far out that would place this specific wheel with respect to the fender/quarter panel. A little wider would look meaner but I don't want the tire sticking out too far. I've seen these in a gunmetal color also, which I don't think would look too bad.



Wheel on the right.

I think those rims would look pretty sweet on your Monte Matt

Thanks Mike, I'm thinking they would too. I'm tore between which one of these finishes I like better: black or gunmetal.

All black (without polished lip)



Gunmetal
