I got several extra rims now. I have a set that came off my Oldsmobile which I thought were cool so when I took it to the Salvage Yard I kept the rims.
On the Monte I have the set that came with it. and I modified the cap with a #3 and also carbon fibered the bowtie. Then I bought a set of the diamond cuts like you have on your Monte I like the looks of them. These will clean up. You can use acetone on them to remove the clear coat then use a good metal polish to restore the finish. Then clear coat them again. you are all set. On these I have Red accents on the car so I got Red anodized or ( Red Chrome) Valve stems and caps. Then I took a small intimidator decal and attached it to each wheel on 1` of the spokes. I am thinking about Red Chrome lug nuts but don't know for sure yet????????:confused: https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...grass-013a.jpg https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...tecarlo-5-.jpg |

I feel like this thread might have happened before. But I guess that's gonna happen when you're "forum-old".
I'll play!: Attachment 23808 The rims are 16" Primax and took 3 months to get. I never knew anyone to have them before, but a few years ago a yellow Monte Carlo on the forum found a set and got the same rubber too. Attachment 23809 The tire paint was good and fresh that day! I've probably re-applied that tire paint a dozen times and I even re-did those fender decals last year to keep 'em bright! |
It probably HAS been done before. JC is considering new rims/tires and it sparked me to start this thread. Even if you have played before..Thanks for playing now!! :)
