Well I finally got some new rims. They are 16" Kazera KZ-Vs. I was looking hard at the 17s but I didn't want to have the 4x4 look. I'm not sure when I'll be able to lower it. I also added side markers, covered the rear sail panels, vinyl eyebrows and I knauberized it. Oh and I filled the rear Ford emblem. At first I wasn't to sure about that but the more I see it the more I like it.

Your car looks nice. You going to be upgrading to bigger wheels once you lower the car? Those headlights are sweet

You made a good choice with the 16's rather then the 17's Contour's look good with 17 in wheels, but you need to lower it before it looks good. I REALLY like that wheel design and love how all of it came out. Every time I see a knauberized contour, I lean more and more towards doing it myself.

It's good to see the SE's getting a little love! Nothing personal SVT folks. I really like those rims! Maybe you should have dropped it first(if you planned to) then you could have changed shoe so to speak to see what you liked best! Very nice job all around!

Thanks for the comments. Yeah I really wanted to get 17"s. I must have looked at wheels all day. I even had the 17s with tires in my cart ready to go when I thought of the 4x4 look. I suppose I could have lowered it first but I really wanted to get rid of the stock rims. I think it makes a world of difference with the new ones on there. It looks so much better now. I'm not sure when I will lower it. But I know me, once I get my mind set on getting something it doesnt take long. I dont know if I will upgrade to 17s when I do. I think I will see how it looks with the 16s.
