yeah on the pontiac website for the 06's, it has 18x8 wheels and 235 tires standard, then it has a $4** option for "18" alloy wheels". What's the difference here? are they wider?

The 18" wheels are not any wider than the 17's. They just look a lot better, worth every dollar IMO.

Only side effect is I believe they come with a summer performance tire that I wouldnt suggest using in the winter. Other than that, probably the best $400 option ever. I'm just mad it wasnt available when I bought mine.
