It was brought to my attention via PM wheather or not HREs prices on there site was for all 4 wheels or just 1 and if so if I really think anyone is going to spend $3500-4000 on a set of rims for a Contour?
Well First I'd like to say that, Yes, HREs prices are for one wheel, not 4. The fact that there Custom made for each vehicle, they use a higher quality aluminum, there of a 3piece design which requires more work and carry the HRE name make them what they are, an elite wheel mostly reserved for (purchased) high-dollar cars.
Secondly, if a Punk Kid can convince himself that spending $3K dollars on a set of Volk Racing Wheel for his, "What Many of you would Consider," a Rice Burner Civic, than why is it so absurd to think that one might want to put such a valuable wheel on there Contour. It boils down to this, if you love a Beautiful, Functional, Light and Distinct wheel (HRE) and you appreciate your Contour more than most Traffic goer's do, than spending $3-4K on a set of wheels isn't so Absurd after all. If you don't fall in this category, and feel the Contour isn't so worthy than these wheels are obviously not for you. I will say that there have been a few Contour folks that have put HRE's on ther Tour's, and I can guarantee it'll give that Tour a whole new look no other wheel can possibly give!
