Yes,yes I know.  I'm jsut asking how long do you think that will take to get it done? Thats all. Do you feel a significant loss in braking power? I do know you siad the wheels were actually fairly light considering their size. Just lookin out for my fellow silver-frost CSVT bro. 
You would actually be very surprised at how well the car brakes with the 20's on. Of course, it will never be the same as with the SVT E1's, but I am happy about the fact that I will not kill myself while I save up for the $2000 big brake upgrade. I simply have to continue driving responsibly and not tailgate anyone (not that I do anyways). Good looking!

I'd say it gives you some bragging rights. Afterall, most people were saying that 20's couldn't be fitted on a Contour without rubbing. You've proved them wrong. That is definately something to brag about.

Not that I would be stupid enough to run any type of motorsport on 20's, but now that you have mentioned it... I could still take your mom's minivan... on 20's .
For the last time, it is NOT Mom's minivan! 
And it's wearing 15s...now. To the track Hombre! Loser buys a case of beer.
