Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Wheels & Tires Replacement Stock Rim

I have a 96 Mystique 2.0L ATX 61k. 185/70R14

When I bought the car the front right rim was bent enough to be noticable at highway speeds.

Now, 9 months later, I am finally getting around to getting a new rim and two front tires.

I can't find a junk yard around me to supply me with a replacement rim for my car. My budget forbids me to replace all the rims with nice aftermarket ones, so I am in search to get a new/used 14" 4-lug wheel for a 96 Mystique at, of course, a reasonable cost.

Does anybody know of a place on the net, or mail order, where I can get a replacement.

Thanks for your help,

I've got a set of four stock wheels off my 98 Contour. They are 14 inch and have very new tires. I'm looking to sell the tires if you're interested. How much are you looking to spend? BTW, the tires are Yokohama Aegis LS4 used for less than 3 months. brantleyiii@earthlink.net I'm selling the wheels too.

Hmmm...

The thing is my rear tires are fine, I don't need to replace those..

I have to replace the tire on the bent rim because it is worn due to the bentness. So I figure why not replace both front tires for the winter here in VT. ($60 each for some cheap Costco tires)

I am not ruleing out replacing all four, but because I am saving my money for an SVT, I just want something to get my by for the next year.
At the most I just need one stock rim, so four will be unnecessary. But thanks for the offer, I do apprechiate it, I just don't need four.

I have a set of 15" ford rims with great rubber that i would part with for 250 bucks.
let me know

Thanks for the offer, but I found a junkyard with three Contiques near where my parents live. So I am gonna go there next weekend.

Thanks again, but I plan saving the mods for my future SVT
