looks good I think the price was defiantly right. Plus you could always sell them for a profit down the road

You can never pass up a good deal. I was able to get mine for $250 with rubber on them, ready to mount.

They look good!

You probably rub because of the side of the finder lip. You can roll them and it probably wouldn't rub anymore

Nice looking rims. They're different than what you normally see on a Monte.

If you rub, your springs are too soft.
