Default 06 ss wheels

Hey everybody. Sorry if this question has been asked before. I was wondering if I would be able to install stock SS wheels for a 2006 monte carlo SS on my 2004 Intimidator. From What I have found on google it sounds like the bolt pattern might be the same but I am not sure about the offset of the wheels.

Never mind I just figured it out. They do fit without any modification. Thanks for viewing

They do but not if they have stock 235-50-18 tires on the back and are brand new. The strut plate will hit. I have this issue so I must run half treads on the back.

Wow your car look great with those wheels! So pretty much I wont be able to run new tires in the rear? Is that what half tread means? Sorry for the noob question. Thanks for the reply!

If you don't mind me asking. Where did you find the polished center caps for your wheels? I just bought a set of ss wheels today but the came with gold center caps that I dont really like.

Next time, switch to a 45 series tire. Just short enough to clear the strut plates. BTW, those wheels really make your car look good.

Thank you and I actually am going to swap to struts from an 06/07 or modify the strut plate I currently have. I like the larger tire - provides a better ride.
