Default Rim info/suggestions

I haven decided if i want to do 17 or 18's yet. Will 18's fit with no additional modifications? I though about getting the Dale Jr rims i also like the asa JH9's. But its hard to tell what theyd look like on your car. On the dale jr rims i can get some replicas which are budgetly priced but who knows on the quality what theyd be like?

Anywho maybe post some info or even suggestions on rims for me? I like open 5 spoke designs.

Hello Jason,

18" wheels will fit, just be sure of the offset. I know 35mm and 45mm offsets are fine, not sure of anything lower. I like both wheels you mentioned, however, I am partial to the ASA JH9's. I just put them on mine and I think they look really good. I have couple of pics in a thread under this section. Good luck on your decisions.

If it helps, here's your car with Dale Jr. wheels on it.

Honestly I think both of your choice of rims look great on your car. But you gotta go with 18s, they just look so good on Montes

I agree with the 18's. I got them on mine in the better months, and the factory chrome 17's now. The 17's ride better, but the 18's look WAY better, and so far, never had any rubbing issues. 18 x 8".
