FOR 2006 AND 2007, WHICH WHEELS DO YOU LIKE BETTER, THE SS RIMS OR THE RIMS THAT CAME ON MINE LTZ?

Neither really that's why I purchased the GM accessories wheels for my LTZ.

Hi Steven, & Members,
I think GM did a decent job on the designs of all the Rim's
for the 06 -07 Monte Carlo.
I also like the dust `free brake pads 
I do like `James' - Cain45 - upgraded GM Wheels : )

I like these : )
17-Inch Forged Polished-Aluminum Wheels
This high-polished aluminum wheel, available on LT, features a five double-spoke design.
I like these better : )
18-Inch Chrome Five Triangular Aluminum Wheels
This double-spoke aluminum wheel, available on SS, features a bright-chrome finish to enhance the sporty look of SS.
Remember to use only GM-approved wheel/tire combinations. See your dealer for details.

I kinda like the 18" triangular jobs myself Space Dood. I must admit though, the original Monte SS rims don't look all that bad either. It's just that the accessory wheels really make the cars stand out from the rest.

Yup I'm the only one in my area *100 mile radius* that have the accessory wheels on my LTZ.

Your SS optional Rim's really add to the
beauty of your Monte Carlo
`Bill, you have one Super/Super Look'in SS 
I haven't seen another one on the road with that color, or rims
I really like `it.
EnJoy your `Journey on your highway of Life, in your SS

I just love that I have 17's... Never had a car with rims that size, and it really makes the car stand out.. Not I just gotta find chrome rims that are 17's.. Found a place on ebay that does a trade-out thing, and chromes factory rims, then trades them with you. But I'd rather get something lighter and other than stock. Plus, that way I can keep my stockers with winter tires, and put em on if I ever sell the car.

I like Cain's polished GM accesory rims too.
AwsomeSS
9/14/2007 11:09:21 AM
I don't like any of them, I like the old style that came on the 00-05s (the one's I have) and the 17" chrome ones

Yep! Both of the styles the Space Dood has shown in his post are the GM accessory wheels for the Monte, and the Impala. The quality is excellent. I've seen a lot of aftermarket wheels, and I really don't think they come close to the quality the GM's are. Another reason I chose the true GM wheel was that since I purchased them with the car, the regular 3 year warranty applies to them, and here in Canada, you can run into some crummy road conditions in the winter.
By the way, the rims on your Monte look real good. Are they 18's or 17's. I don't like the look of the 20's, they seem to just overpower the car, and all you see are the wheels.

The wheels I show in the signature pic are Eagle Alloy chrome 077's, 18x8".
I think 20's look great, but I drive too many miles for them, as the tire price goes up dramatically as the size goes up, and the tire life goes down, multiplying the tire cost. I'm happy with the 18's for the summer and the chrome "diamond cut" 17's for the winter.

i like the nitrous 2's more than the nitrous's though from foose, they're the same cept for the 2's dont have the rivets
from the stock wheels i love the look of the SS wheel's, not too sure what the ltz wheels look like though

The Speedsters are my 2nd choice right behind the Nitrous series. It would be a very tough call.

yes the speedsters are very nice, but i believe they are stoping production of them, i know they're not available for the mustangs anymore, i sold a set of 20's to a girl here and she got them because of the fact nobody else has them or gets them very easily around here
i also like the
dub dirty dogs
and the dub esinem's all in 20's :)
