Not any chrome on the Monte to start, I'd say go with the black but chrome could look good (how's that for non-commital?). Depends on what your future plans are. You gonna go with a black trim theme or are you unsure yet? Or better yet take a look for yourself, go to tirerack.com there you can pick the wheels you like and see them on "your car" Pretty cool feature. Hope that $200 is each! :p

Use craigslist or ebay to find some used ones if you want wheels for $200. Keep in mind the cost to mount and balance them.

I've also got a white monte, and will hopefully be going with 17'' ASA Ar9's soon, the machined black (with either carbon fiber inserts or no inserts at all). Found them on TireRack, but not sure what kind of tires I'll need to get with the larger rims.
