Get the 22's.
They make a profound statement!

The statement is that you don't care how silly they look on a Coupe ... you want them; and in your mind they are cool.

The reality is ... They don't fit, belong on a SUV, not on a Passenger Coupe ... where they look like big, loop ear rings on a body builder.

They do fit. U dont have to do any cutting or any work done to your suspension. All u have to do is get the right tire size.

They are better than factory.

(I dont understand how someone can say anything bad about the 22's.)

They make the monte look better. Montes look good on 22's

Just be careful, even though they fit...they are still a whole lot heavier than the stocks. Like most have been trying to say--it puts stress on the suspension, brakes, TRANSMISSION...that's a big one. It affects more than what most think. Good luck and I hope you enjoy your new wheels!

Honestly where I live at their are alot of montes that have rims especially 22's and friends who have montes with 22's. And their has never been an incident in which something major like that actually happened.

I couldn't even imagine actually DRIVING on 22's! I have enough trouble keeping my 17's and 18's balanced from the crap roads. How can you keep from bending rims? I see bent or broken rims ALL the time? You obviously don't drive on Michigan roads. For show: GREAT! For driving: NOT IN MICHIGAN!

22s are too big in my opinion, they would scare me too much for rubbing and any damage on the super expensive rims. 20s fill the wheel gap nicely, but I personally think 18s are the best. They aren't too much of a pocket destroyer and with the right tires, look great. I've been considering getting 18s and just lowering for the "filled in" look the 20s give.

I would have recommended dubs, but dub deuces do look nice. I just think the more sidewall you get with dubs would only benefit you in ride comfort and durability.
