(I wish mine looked like that. I'd feature the all the Badging. I'd have the "Monte Carlo" script air-brushed "Deep Gun Metal Gray" and the SS's "Enzo Rosa" Red. You'll love that Ferrari Red on the SS's.)
Thanks alot, now there is drool all over my keyboard.

are you talking so that you'd have a bigger lip and wider rim on the back??

Not really wider or taller... I thought staggered meant the design of the rim.. like an overlay / cross of spokes like this

ps.. sorry if I sound confusing but I am learning lol.

I plan to put

245/45/18 on my monte.. simply cant find the rims I really want !! And to think I live in Souther California.. sheeesh! haha
Those rims WILL fit your car. They are the correct offset and the 5x114.3 bolt pattern fits our 5x115 bolt pattern without modification.

Silverbullitt for MOTM
thanks guys for the compliment. i try to make my car little different than everyone else.
+42mm should be fine. if i remember right the smaller the offset the number the more the tire stick out.
rickomatic, i had the red overlay before but not liking it. this is my next plan im making the side badges "supercharged ss" all black and the front knight shield emblem will be like the old school knight shield. going to have reflective concepts make me the emblem.
steve machine, you only need to roll the 2 rear fender lip. very easy to roll it yourself. all you need is rubber mallet and heating gun.

hey silver, are these the same rims? you look like you have a deeper dish, and the only ones that look like yours are 18x10.5's these are 18x9....?

yes that look like the same style as mine 18x9 except mine is +34mm and the one in the pic is +38mm. +38mm offset will be fine too. i wouldn't go anything lower than +24mm offset. 18x9 is probably biggest you want on 18" cause if go wide you might have problem with rubbing on the struts. is your ride lower? if you are you going to have problem with rubbing issue, but that is no biggie a rubber mallet and heating gun will fix it. if you are planning to get the 18x9 the tire size i recommend would be 255/45. 245/45 is too small and make it looks too stretchy on the 9" wide rim. btw what color is your ride? if it's dark color i would get chrome bullitt that would look good! 2005 plus 'stang bullitt is what you want cause they don't stick out that much. here's where i got mine.

well i want exactly what you have. my monte is the gold color, i'm planning on getting the razzi body kit for it, and i was thinking of a few color combos, black lip kit and black rims, and tinted glass, or the body kit the same color as the car, and tinted glass and black rims, or, what seems to settle nice in my imagination, painting the black part of the rims the same color as the car, this will all be professionally done, as i cant say the same for my grammar and spelling.

yeah gold would look good on black wheel cause it's a lighter color too. i'm glad you did't choose chrome. i had chrome before but didn't like it. is your car a LS?
