Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Wheels & Tires Brand New 17's

Hey Guys and Girls I have a brand new set of 17's mounted and balanced onto a new set of Kumho Ecsta 205/40R/17 Z rated. These rims are 17 inch made by american eagle alloys. This set has not even touched payment yet. to see a pick go to www.aewheel.com and select series 193 sliver finshed or just copy on this link http://www.aewheel.com/wheels_detail.cfm?id=79
I need to get rid of these rims and tires because I Just bought a truck and i'm selling my contour.Note their are stick on wheels weights on these rims so the rims dont get damaged like the normal wheel weights. I want $1700(CDN) for these rims and tires. It cost me $2108.64 (CDN) to have them shipped mounted and balanced. So i belive this is a pretty good deal. You can also make me a offer and they will be sold to the highest bidder. My email address is sdhillon007@hotmail.com so if you have any questions please feel free to email me. Thanks. P.S I'm located in Burlington Ontario which is 30 Miles West of Toronto. I will ship also but buyer pays shipping costs.

Besides probably making your speedometer off by quite a bit, those tires are very overloaded. 80W rating = just under 1000 pounds per corner. I don't know what model you have, but even if it is a stripper Zetec, you are around 2900 pounds. Then add driver, passengers and cargo. With FWD, you have about 64% front weight bias. Almost 4000 pounds totally weighed down with 64% on the front two tires. That's way more than those tires are rated for.
