Just post your answer:
Wheels before-

15" Rota slipstreams painted black
Wheels now-

17" BBS

Now my question is; should I powdercoated them gunmetal/black OR leave them alone?

LEAVE THEM!

that looks amazing as is!

Leave them alone, I like the way it looks right now, classy!

I swear I will punch you so hard if you change them!!!! Leave em as is!

Of all the different sets I've seen on your car, these look the absolute best.

Leave them just how they are.

Leave them, that is super hot on your car.

OMG..If I had those rims, I'd powdercoat them light gunmetal on my black svt

leave them alone.. it's sexy right now...

Leave them alone they look good...

Leave them alone. They look hot!

It's a good bet they should stay how they are

Thumbs up, man. I like them.

Bring your other wheels to SZ, maybe someone will buy them

how come the 17s don't look any bigger than the 15s?

while the silver color does look cleaner I like the weight of the Rotas.

I say...powdercoat the Rotas silver.

the rotas are 15's

You'd be nutz

to mess around with your new rims, they are a good match for your car!

I'd not do gunmetal since you're trying to have a black/red theme. Silver wheels don't stray from that cause your ring/muffler/rear chrome strip are similar. The gunmetal would be only grey colour which imho doens't mix with red and black.

WHy is it your BBS's look bigger than my BBS's?!

Oh well.. leave em JUST like that, looks REAL good Hector!

Holy sh!t thats the funniest thing I seen all day.
A asian dude picking his nose. priceless.

Well since I'm a nice guy and Locoz pics aren't working anymore for whatever reason, I'll re-host them.

Before:
15" Rota slipstreams painted black

After:
17" BBS

Damn Hector those look nice, don't change them.

nice! if you paint them i will poop on you.

Thats one of the best non svt Contour Ive ever seen!

there doesn't happen to be a red don't painted on the inside of them rims as well as CPJ etched in 3 different spots? reason i ask is b/c i had those same rims until someone stole them. not saying that you did, jsut asking

plus, i think that i a wierd move to make a profit BBS probably made more than one set. i miss those rims so much, leave them the way they are and put some locks on them, even though it's more for looks b/c locks are easy to pop of. mine were

I second the beating! They totally change the look of your car for the better in my opinion! Really brings the car to life! Great choice in wheels mang!

Those used to be on my 95 SE that I sold to him last year. I am sure they are HOT looking, indeed they should dropped like they are hot, but they are not stolen.

They were 15's for a reason...

I really wish I could've had the money to take those Rota's off your hand, but as for the BBS's... Leave them. Those rims were made for your car!!

i kinda liked the knite rider effect you had going with the other rims but the new ones look hot as they are

damn i couldn't decide

change em

leave 'em alone

Keep 'em or sell 'em to me this summer.

15's, maybe 16's, but anything bigger is just a waste of rotaional mass on a Contour. I like the Rotas for anything but posing.

Leave 'em

Well after staring at pics....and staring at the car at work...I am leaving them.

Plus the poll is a landslide!

Good, i like the way it looks the way it is.
Definatly lookin good.

Hey I don't compliment you a lot because you suck...but I will say those BBS's look absolutely awesome!!!!

If you change them what-so-ever, the day before Mikey poops on you I will invite him to another Steak and Shake meet just so you get everything you deserve!!!!

I think it looks a lot better now, just get some bigger tires and i think it will finish the look...

Ohh and get those windows tineted.
