I know there are individuals on this site that like to be the Contour Police, but those individuals are the minority. Speaking from my own experience, I have come from knowing nothing about these cars to knowing enough to make me dangerous around them In that time, I have always tried to help people with questions who have taken a small amount of time to do some reading before posting and construct a logical, correct sentence when posting. However, it becomes quite tiresome when there are three threads in Troubleshooting all within days of each other that say something like "OMG WTF i jus started up my car an this lihgt is on it looks like an x what do i do pls hlp". For the record, I have told people to search, but I've always tried to be polite and helpful about it, even if it doesn't always come across that way.

You don't have to go to Contour University (go Cougars!) but I think at a minimum everyone should take the time to read the FAQ section and the sticky threads above each forum they want to post to. If you still have questions, ask. Back on topic I personally don't like the wheels, but I think its because of the lip. I've never been a big fan of wheels with studded lips.
