Hey y'all;
Wondering if anyone has any photos of the Dale Earnhardt Killer wheels on a late model Monte Carlo????

I am thinking of putting these on my '06 Monte. (Photo below) As you can see, I have American Racing Rogue's on there right now. They are 20X8.5's. But I am wanting to try a staggered setup with 20X10's on the back. Unfortunately, I have just found out that American Racing is discontinuing the Rogue and none of the vendors I have tried have the ability to get anymore. So, I am stuck with looking at new wheels altogether. I have always liked the Killer, was even considering putting some on my '98 WS6 at one point, so now am looking at them for my Monte.

I have searched and searched forum and internet for some photos, but am not having much luck. I did do a Google search some time back and found a black late model Monte with the Killer's and that photo even came from a thread on this forum, but damned if I can find it again.

So, if anyone has any photos or know where any are of Monte's running Killer wheels, post them up here or shoot me the info where these photos are. It would be much appreciated!!!!!!!!!

Why would you put the wide wheels on back?

Well, I'm a real fan of the "staggered" look on most two door sports cars and coupes, like my WS6 and many other cars. In highschool, I had a two door Olds Cutlass Supreme (something similar(ish) to my Monte), and I had staggered wheels on it and looked good. I have never seen anyone do a staggered setup on these later gen W-bodies so thought I would give it a try and see if it looks as good as I think it will.....

Could put them on front and run some nice wide rubber to help with traction.

Mine are staggered from the factory, 8 in front 7 in rear, putting those 10s in the back may look good, but may cause more harm than good.

Agreed, your cars understear pretty bad already. More traction out back probably isn't the best thing for us.

JP_GXP

Um, no, understeer and torque steer are fixed.... 18x8 wide in front and 18x7 narrow in rear...

typo, I meant "our". We still have both understeer and torque steer.

That's a damn good lookin Monte, keep the wheels as is!

JP_GXP

Ok, I get what you're saying now.

And I agree with CenTex, looks good as is.

that front lip looks awesome. is it custom made? you should have got matching skirts for the sides and rear to even it out. looks a little weird to have a lower front than the rest.

Damn that thing looks AWESOME, , I can't imagine it looking any better!

Thanx,
The car has turned out pretty well. It was/is a labor of love, but it's pretty well there. No, the front isn't custom, but it is an aftermarket piece from Razzi. They do make a full body kit as you had mentioned, but I'm not a real fan of full body kits. Also, I personally really like the sides and the back of the Monte as is from the factoy...

I doubt you could fit 20X10s on the rear w/o serious modifications.

If you can let me know, I'd like to put some z06 wheels on my gp.
Not sure how it'd look though
