hey all..

havent been around here in a long while.. hope all is well..

the reason i'm posting today is because i made an interesting discovery earlier this afternoon.. Back when i had my contour (over a year or two ago since i lost it) i had 17" Borbet type T's on it, with some real nice low-pros .. Well i was back in my hometown today (cheshire) and came upon the old rims/tires at a place i used to work. its a long story , but i had considered those rims/tires long gone and out of my posession for the past year or so. turns out, i'm picking them up tommorow, but i have no use for them on the Oldsmobile..

the only catch is that (some of the CEG old timers may remember) i banged up my contour pretty bad back in the day, and two of the rims are shot.. BUT, if anyone is looking for some really nice 17" low profile tires, or was thinking about upgrading their wheels, im looking to get rid of it all CHEAP.. they have no use to me anymore...

well, just a thought. let me know..

my email is jake@mannion.net , and ill check back here soon

later!

Hi all.

i now have the tires/wheels.. the wheels are 17" borbet type t's , and the tires are Firestone Firehawk SZ 50 EP , size 215/45ZR17.. mileage i would estimate at 8,000 on the tires, plenty of tread left all around..

So, if anybody's interested, the tires cost around $150 a piece new but im really looking to get rid of these cheap, plus hey two rims if you want them..

well.. let me know.. bye

by the way, here is a pic of when i had them on the contour:
