Amazing car 01-on-air. I just went through your gallery and it was very tastefully done. I like that blue with the yellow- is that a candy of some sort?

me personaly i would go with 18's but if you want 20's-22's. get all the suspention peases to make it work but do resarch on it, and try to find some one with a simular monte with 20-22 on it and see how you like the ride before you do the same to yours. the reason why most of us are saying the 18 size is to say you might like the feel of the ride and the price of the new rubber when you need to get new rubber for the rims. also expect the really high price of the rubber for the bigger rims. i am letting you know what to expect but it is what you choose to be happy with the monte you have. i am glad you are looking for some thing you will enjoy for the monte you enjoy.
