I can't tell what you have on there now because it's a dark pic but IMO keep what you have. I'm not a big fan of the what i call "Ebay" wheels. Everyother fox body i see around here "Michigan" has those "Ebay" wheels. I think there cool looking for sure but why look like everybody else. IMO
I like them.I want to get a set for mine.They make them in 17x9 and 17x10 for a 4 lug car.You never see them around here.Go for it and get them if you like them.You have to be the one that likes them.
I like both. I really do but the "ebay" wheels or so common now adays. I would pick the ones you like and forget what i say. Either way the car will look tough...
Ebay wheels...Not my 1st pick.
What does the fact that the company that sells the wheels has an ebay store have to do with anything? I don't see your logic and frankly your argument makes no sense. OE Wheels is the company that produces the 4 lug 10th Anniversary replica wheel in three different finishes. You can buy them directly from their website as well. Latemodel restoration sells the same exact whelels, would you like them only because they're not sold on ebay? Summit Racing has an ebay store, do you hate them? The average ebay page sees 400 hits a day, it's just smart business, plain and simple.
Because people that build there cars off ebay think it's the only place to buy stuff from. I like the wheels. I really do but there just like mustangs in the 90's. There like buttholes. everyone has one and there everywhere. You have no idea how many of those wheels i see on mustangs around here. It's like follow the leader. There are some many diffrent wheels to pick from. Why buy the same old played out stuff. Don't follow, be a trend setter and go diffrent.
To tell the truth. Yes i hate EVERY store that sells on ebay. I remember when ebay was great. Now all you find is stores selling there cheap knock off stuff. I use ebay ALL the time for deals on used stuff. I pieced my whole black interior together from ebay. it only cost me $235.87. Thats with a set of SWEET leather seats. There's a time and place for ebay but buying wheels is not one of those times. Take you car to the pro's and have them fit the right wheel on your car.
IMO you should only use ebay to buy used or hard to find parts from an individual and not some store. Ebay use to be great for deals but nows it's just another on-line store. Another thing i hate about stores and ebay, list 2 maybe 3 of the same item. NOT 100. Look at those wheels right now on ebay. I bet there's more then 100 listing for the same wheels.
Ebay was started as a market place. Not some showplace to advertise your product.
Plus you took it way out of line. I never said to the man "Don't buy those cheap ebay wheels" did i? I called the wheel it's self the "ebay" wheel.
So your logic and frankly your argument makes no sense. I never said ebay was a bad place untill you asked me about.......:Zip2:
Some EBay sellers do tend to sell junk these days but if its a reputable supplier/company that has an EBay Store who cares.I like the "EBay" wheels best over the SC replicas.I say go for it.

I agree with you to a point. Not all seller are reputable. Just because they have a high feedback means nothing really. I know we have all seen the "Cobra 70mm MAF" on ebay. That guy sell's junk. we all know that the cobra 70mm MAF has to be used with 24 pounders stuff but he has it listed as "works with 19 pounders" Would you buy a MAF from that guy knowing he's wrong? Not me.
And again i never said i hated the wheels. I like the SC wheels more the the 10th Anniv. Now it would be a diffrent answer if he asked this? What wheels is better. The 10th Anniv "Ebay wheel" or the TRX's or even some 10 holes. it's apple and oranges. I think somebody got a hair up his butt because i called them "ebay wheels" I guess he's one of those people that belive everything he reads on ebay.
Sorry. I was on a rant there for a min. Your car looks sweet as hell and i meen it. My FAVORITE fox body is a white couple with the black moldings. I happen to like the wheels that you have on it right now. It will look just as good with "ebay wheels" also. So whatever wheels you do pick it will look awsome. Sorry if by me called them "ebay wheels" has turned you off to the idea of them. Me and my friends have dubbed those wheels the "ebay wheels. BTW i really do like the car and it's the ONLY car i would trade in my t-top car for and i HATE t-top. I like to be diffrent, Thats why i have a t-top car. you don't see them everyday like you do with hatch's and notch's......Once again sorry about my rant......:SNSign:
All that matters to me is what the OP asked.Ebay wheels...
I'll let you worry about the rest. lol
Pretty sure you're not seeing 10th anniversary wheels on alot of FOX's.... If you said cobra R's then i'd agree.. But DEFINITELY not 10th anniversary rims.
You're ebay logic is retarded honestly. Reputable companies sell on e-bay cause it makes sense... Just because they are sold on e-bay doesn't mean they are crap.
Right... Your personal vendetta against a few random and sporadic ebay sellers is illogical and biased for some undisclosed reason. Did you get burned one time on an ebay sale? I highly doubt there are tons of guys running around your neighborhood with 4 lug 10th anniversary cobras, considering they've only been available for a month or two. I live on LI and go to shows in the tri state which is basically the Mecca for fox bodies and have only seen one other set. In a nutshell, it makes no sense to use ebay exclusively for used and rare parts when deals on anything and everything imaginable are plentiful and commonplace. Sure there are a lot of junk sellers and people are mislead and taken advantage of on occasion, but it's consumer Darwinism. That's what ebay's feedback system is for. Why don't you reevaluate your argument and come up with some solid points, otherwise you just sound like a ranting moron.
I have never been burned on ebay. I watch the the people i buy from and only deal real people and not stores. ebay is, or was an auction house and not a store. I have gotten many many many great deals off ebay and i'm sure i will in the future. I go as far as buying stuff on ebay and reselling it for double what i got it for. I just relist it better and maybe clean some stuff up and make it look better. I start all my auction at on penny and not what i'm asking for it like most of the stores. I also price my shipping at a very real world price. I do not over charge on shipping to make up for what can be a low selling price. ebay feed back is a joke now adays. I find it hard to belive that all this people buying from stores selling only one or two diffrent items never have any problems with product we know just don't work are make thing worse. I'm sure if you wanted me to i could come up with 5 diffrent things just for the fox body mustang we all know just don't work like they say. I don't have a personal vendetta against a few random and sporadic ebay sellers. I have it against the ebay stores. If there are people buying these crap items and like them i feel sorry for them. I never see people on this site log on and say how much they love these snake oil items but yet by the ebay stores feedback we would all have brand X item on his or hers cars. I guess if your not an ebay seller it would be hard to understand. I'm not talking about selling acouple items a few times a years. I'm talking more like the selling i do. At any given time i have a min of 10 items selling. I don't sell for anybody but me and it's my stuff. I part out cars, trucks, semi truck parts and bike parts.
I know 5 people that have the 10th anniversary wheels on there car already. 3 of them got'em off ebay. The two that went to a local shop and got there wheels were much happier with there fit and have a place local with a warranty. Not some store on ebay where who knows what would happen if something went or was wrong. I have also spoted 3 others running them. IMO in 3 to 4 years they will be just like pony wheels. Everybody had to have the pony's for there car. I think they will go down the way of the pony wheel. If i wanted to look just like everybody else i would also use them but i like to stand out. I'm not saying my car looks awsome or anything but it doe'nt get lost in a sea of foxbodys.
For the original poster. I like the wheels you have. They look great on your car and i'm sure you won't see another on just like it.
I vote for the "EBAY" wheels....
That being said, those SC wheels look good too, but they a far more common than the 10th anniversary replicas...
