Definitely not a wrinkled rose -- those are your basic beach roses, like in the Porter Square parking lot, and they seem to always be the same pink color; not mention that they have larger, more delicate petals.
Pasture roses have a little more variation in color, but I still don't see this deep, dark red. Then again, I'm looking at the first hundred or so results in Google Image, so I may be missing something.
My guesses were based at a quick glance at Peterson's Field Guide to Wildflowers (1968 ed.), which doesn't mention quinces. I should get a new edition.
