First-off , What is the bolt pattern for the Ford Contour ? Is it close to an Escort ? Next what is the normal price for 2nd gen 7 spoke wheels ? I`m thinking of putting a set on my 3rd gen Scort. Contour`s had a real nice set of 7 spoke wheels , Nice and shiny . Can anyone tell me how wide the 2nd gen spoiler is ? I`m trying to figure out if it will fit my car without a huge overhang on the sides . If it`s around a half inch per side , I probably could live with that . I do not like the spoiler from the ZX2 . It just doesn`t look right to me . I like the car just not the spoiler . Anyone? Thank you in advance .

I´m not sure what the bolt pattern is for the Contour, but I know the Escort has a 4x100 pattern with a 38 mm offset. GTs have 15" rims and I believe LXs have 14" rims(?). As long as the Contour has a 4x100 pattern and a 38 mm offset, it should fit.
I don´t know what the price for the 2nd gen rims would be, it would be up to the private sellers disgretion. I have a set of 93 GT rims that I got for free, but I´m planning on using them.
On the spoiler; do you want a 91-92 GT 3 piece "wrap around" spoiler or a 93-up LX, & GT one piece spoiler? The 2nd gen Escort is 66.7" wide, if that helps.

Interrested in 93 up , the ones with the central brake light pedistal. I know a little from a rough mesurement I did with of all things ,a snowbrush, but I need to be sure . I know that the mounts will fit my trunk lid with room to spare , but again I`m not sure of the side overhang enough to go ahead and do it yet .

91-93 LX´s have 13" steel wheels, except the 4 dr sedan (14" steel), and sport 3dr (14" alloys)
94-96 LX´s all have 14 " wheels

The 7 spoke alloys came as part of the "Sport Appearance Group" which was offered on 93-96 3dr, and 95-96 4dr and 5dr LX´s. Also included were the spoiler and tachometer.
