But they're still replicas.. say, don't you have something to pay for still?

I would just get some off a Mustang if you're really interested in them

I would put Mustang runs on my Monte, if they will fit. I would like some of the newer model wheels though.

Mustang wheels fit on our Montes with no problem (See sig pic, mine were from an 06 GT)

It just brings up that old argument 5x115 vs 5x114.3... I haven't had a problem yet, it's been almost a year.

If you want to go that route, i'd check craigslist frequently. I got mine from there, all 4 rims (2 with brand new Falken tires) for less than you'd pay for those American Racing rims without tires.

Deep wells aren't great with our cars, gotta watch for high positive offset
