Picked these up yesterday. They are in fantastic shape with only a few paint chips. No curb rash at all. Crappy picture from my crackberry.

Yea the guy bought them for his contour for the summer but his contour died. BTW if anyone is looking for SVT contour parts look on kijiji in the Toronto area, I looked at his contour it was in giood shape and complete. He said he was parting it out.

With my SVTs on. The wheel gap is pretty bad, especially in the front. I plan on doing an SVT suspension swap in the summer hopefully depending on how the finances are doing. Also plan on getting some black caliper paint for the calipers and drums.

Did you end up putting the gloss on them ? Still they look way better than stock rims. Can't wait to throw mine on , i ordered my tires from Costco and the tires still haven't arrived.

No I haven't put the gloss on yet, I have to buy new tires too the ones on the rims are basically bald. Once the new rubber is on I will try out the gloss. What tires did you get from costco?

Drop it!

I hope that pic was taken before you moved the car and the suspension hasn't settled yet. If not, you must have the off-road package... Big Grin

This is mine in better days with SVT rims and SVT suspension...

Yes I took the picture before I moved the car, so it's not as bad as the picture. I like the drop of the SVT suspension because you still have ground clearance for the winter.
