    Default 17" Rage Breakers Off of a '97 Ford Contour

    Item specifics:

    Rim Material: Alloy
    Rim Brand: Rage
    Rim Model: Breaker
    Rim Diameter: 17
    Number of Bolts: 4
    Rim Structure: Forged
    Bolt Pattern: 4x108

    These are 17" Rage Breakers. The tires that WERE on it were 215/45/17 if that helps as far as their offset, etc. It's been far too long so I can't remember every detail. I'm having them removed because I'm sure they have suffered dry rot over the years. These wheels were on the vehicle for only ~2000 miles and that may be an exaggeration. The wheels are in great shape with little to no damage - they have been inspected and re-inspected several times of the last several years. Perhaps a small, barely noticeable chip somewhere that I have overlooked. No curb-check damage, no discoloration or gashes, etc. You can inquire within if you want detailed pictures, etc, but these wheels are in fantastic shape. They have been garaged for 7+ years now and have retained their magnificence save a few cobwebs that need to be brushed off. They're 4x108 lug pattern and used to fit on a 1997 Ford Contour Sport. I removed the wheels/tires several years ago before winter hit and not far into that winter, I totaled my Contour. I was only partially done modifying the car so it was quite tragic... R.I.P. Since then they have been collecting dust in my parent's garage in Kansas City. I'm asking $375 (some room for negotiation) for them and would prefer a local buyer simply to avoid all the shipping and handling mess. At this juncture I'm just looking to get rid of them. I bought the wheels and tires mounted and balanced for $950 brand new from discounttiredirect.com years ago and the wheels were the majority of that cost. If someone is that interested that they would be willing to pay the shipping, we can talk.

    It's been a while so I'm not entirely sure how to post pictures so if someone could help, I'd appreciate it. Otherwise I'll just upload them to a photo-hosting site and post the links.

    Edit: I just realized that this is the same account from all those years back and in my signature is a link to an ancient page I created for my Contour. There you can see the wheels on my car, as well as some additional information. Wow....really takes me back. Can't believe it still exists. Just hit the "My '97 Contour" hyperlink.

    If interested or if you have any questions you can also contact me at 913-634-5112. My name is Vincent. I should be fully available most of this week.

    The wheels aren't forged wheels, they are cast wheels. Just a heads up for those who might be mis-informed.

    Cast? My mistake then. It shouldn't be terribly difficult to google the specs of Rage Breakers for those that seek the maximum amount of information possible. I have since removed the tires from the wheels (they likely were suffering dryrot due to their age) and in the process, the people doing so managed to damage the lip on at least one of the wheels...soooo that kind of screws me over. I'll adjust the price accordingly and post the necessary pictures of the aforementioned damage.
