I know someone was asking about RS's for his car. I couldnt find the post, but came across these.

Too small and too tall.

I can appreciate the European styling, but the fenderwells are just way too large on the Contour to have that small of a wheel-tire combo in there. Honestly the stock 16's are almost too small for the fenderwells to me. It kind of looks like it's running on spares...

This link says 16" but I do think they look more like 15's

Here's what needs to happen, 17, or 18s, more wide, AT LEAST 8 with a low offset to pull off some more lip, and low. Done!

Are you a member on vortex tourenvy?
I've been hanging out over there quite a bit

I never said it was going to be pretty. I just hop on the vortex looking for wheels and tire info and 4x108 classifieds.

Nice looking wheel, but that size rim and tire doesn't work at all. The RS has too much lip to be run in a 16".

 

[AcGcSVT00]

Even if they were 15" I would still rock them but only if they were 8.5-9 wide and coil overs on the tour.

 

[crackerican69]

maybe if they had more of a lip on them and a slightly larger size

 

[qbcsvt]

They are ok. Needs a lil more low. If they are multi piece get a new lip or barrel to lower the offset. They seem to small in the current setup. At least a quality wheel!

 

[AcGcSVT00]

Wider with a nice lip and some coil overs will do the trick

 

[TourEnvy]

These would work on an Contour.

Pretty sure those just sold.

 

[TourEnvy]

To you?

They burn mah eyes to look at. Remind me of 80's Rx7 stock wheels. BARF

 

[rexxdoggy]

I wish. If they were though, they'd be getting a relip treatment.

 

[79mustang351w]

I think they are ugly. And I would hate to clean them all the time.

I will stick to my sexy ass 5 spoke Rev Model X wheels you all envy so much!!
