Thread: contour wheels and tires

  1. #1

    Default contour wheels and tires

    Guys
    I just wanted to offer this. I have a 99 Se Sport that is pretty rare. Loaded 5 speed. I hated the smaller stock wheels and tires. I put 06 Focus 16 inch mags with 225-55-16 Kumhos and they just clear everywhere without rubbing at all. Locks and handles great.

    Nope the words Ford Contour put together have the abscence of "rare" I see SE sports with 5 speeds all of the time.

    Mercury Mystique LS with the 5-speed here.

    I've only seen one SVT without sunroof in my area.

    I have one of those "rare" SE Sport 5 Speeds also.

    But seriously, anymore they can be pretty difficult to find.

    I think he's just trying to say that 225-55-16s fit without rubbing. He just seems to have a little trouble forming a concise sentence.
    • See, you think I give a ••••. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking, "How can I give less of a ••••?" That's why I look interested.
    • I know there's a god, because every once in a while someone whispers in my ear, "You're my favorite!"

    Ahh... now I get it!

    To original poster: Speedometer a bit slow?

    Guess I'll see if it can get moved to Wheels and Tires.
