1998 SVT Contour Rims

[will1258]

Can someone tell me the width of the rims that came on the 1998 Contour SVT (the SVT 5 spoke rims)?

I notice that the tires on the car I just bought are 205's, and to be honest the rims don't look to wide. Can someone tell me how wide of tire they have been albe to put on these rims? Also, are they all 16" rims.

Thanks,:help:

SVT Contours come with 16" rims the rims are 16x7 iirc and the max you can run is 225's with out rubbing.

16x6.5" iirc. 205/55r16 and 215/50zr16 are the two diff. sizes used on the svtc.
