Size: 18x7.5
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3
Offset: +43mm
Center Bore: 73.1
And yes, I am aware that my car is suppose to take a 5x115 bolt pattern. I also think the stock center bore is 70.3.

YES! That's Polished or machined not chrome right? I'm very happy my SS cousin will not be "blinged-out". Very tasteful, a good alternative to stock.
How much?
And are you going to run the 114.3 or is it available in 115, I know lots of people have run 114.3 on other generations with no problems.

Cully,
You are definitely my closest friend on this forum. Always posting in my thread with your opinions. Thank you very much! Perhaps we will get a chance to meet some day if we ever decide to get the Midwest Montes together.
As far as the wheels go. They do not come in 5x115 so I will have to go with the 5x114.3 and get it machined a little if it does not fit properly. I think with hub centric rings it will be fine. I will also be able to use my OEM tires until I save enough for an upgrade, perhaps before next winter. I would just get an alignment check and make sure the tires with the most thread are up front.
But yeah, NO bling for me. Anything bigger than an 18 inch wheel just does not seem right. At least not on these cars. No offense to any one. of course. The silver is actually a machined finish. Now, I do not know how these wheels will hold up honestly, because of the ole saying, "you get what you pay for," but they are listed for $430 shipped. I think I can get them cheaper too.
Would anyone be able to photoshop these on my car or another black 06-07 Monte, preferably one with tinted windows?? I would really appreciate it!

i really like those! i'm not a big fan of aftermarket rims most of the time but those are very cool. i like the black accent and that they're not chrome. i think the chrome rims are too bling-y, not my style. those i really like though! good call!

Thanks man! Yeah hopefully we will get a chance to meet... Maybe you'd be able to make it to Cort's midwest meet this summer? Not sure how far of a drive that would be for you, but I think it's in the Elgin, IL area, I forget but I'll check on that.
Workin on a photoshop for you, but it's not looking great right now because of the white background behind the rims in the pic... i'd be able to do it no problem with photoshop but unfortuneatly I only have Gimp at home. I'll look for some different pics of the rims what are the called? VSR is the brand right?
