    Widest tires on OEM's

    I've got stock 17x8 01 Cobra Rims and I run 255's front and 275's back. I've been running 275's in the back for 2 years and haven't had any problems. Like what has been said, there are lots of specs here and there, but there are also a lot of people on this forum who have put 275s on with no...

    How do you buy your rims?

    I'm thinking about buying some rims and wanted to know how others go about doing it. Do you order the wheels from the place that's putting them on? I have found it's sometimes cheaper for me to just order them from websites and have them put on later. Anyone know who's got the best price to...

    Where can I find these wheels?

    These rims look great. Performance wheel outlet seems to have the best price on them. I've been wanting Chrome Deep Dish Bullets, but now I'm liking these.

    OK 2001 Cobra.... Pros and cons

    I haven't had any problems with mine, expcept for a bad thermostat that was covered under warranty. I know a lot of 01's had pinging problems, but I'm happy to say it never happened to mine. I know some people complain about the notchy shifting on cold days. I get that on mine, but it really...

    Any buyer's remorse from 03/04 Cobra owners?

    Not really any remorse here. Sometimes I wish I got a car that was built with more quality, like a luxury car. But overall, when I hear that engine and feel the speed, I KNOW why I didn't buy a luxury car. I just accept some of the little rattle and shakes as something any sports car will...

    Need help finding rims

    Those look close to it, but the ones I've seen have a pointed centercap. I'm going to keep looking at the site to see if they are there. But if the prices are the way they are, I may just go with wheelreplicas fat Torque Thrusts. Arnie

    Need help finding rims

    I have seen these great looking chrome rims on 2 mustangs around town and I can't find them anywhere on the internet. They look like Torque Thrusts, except they look more sharper, like blades. They also have a point on the centercap. I looks kind of like an arrowhead. Anyhow, I wish I had a...

    weird nose, squeak, coming from back right of car.

    I've got this creak too, and when I posted about it, others said they have it too. It's strange how it's only on the right side in the back. Anyhow, I'm afraid to have Ford mess with it because I don't want them to make it worse. I've just kind of gotten used to it. I'd like to hear if...

    Bragging rights of the Snake

    Out of the mods, it was the bumper inserts that added the most horsepower, right? Kidding aside, congrats on your accomplishment. :flag:

    Should I sell or wait?????

    Might as well and try to sell it now, since you'll be getting rid of it later anyways. No point in letting it sit when you canc lear the space now. Even if the market may not be right for it, it doesn't hurt to try. If someone is willing to buy it for around your price, go for it.

    SHould I get a 97 or 98 cobra or a newer GT or bullit?

    I personally would go with the snake. Not many people know what a Bullitt is, unless they are enthusiasts or know stangs. But even people who don't know much about stangs know about Cobras. When I'm on the road, I rarely give a GT a 2nd look and I'll stare at the Bullitts. But I drool...

    snake emblem on grill Q

    I waited until it was time for my routine 5K mile checkup at Ford and just asked them to put it on. Some people don't like the look of the snake in the grill since it's smaller, but I like it.

    Not my week...speeding ticket

    Well this just isn't my week. My car got damaged in the auto car wash. And then today I get a speeding ticket. It's my first ticket for speeding. But since I got a citation for a rolling stop less than a year ago, this means that I can't take the driving class and I will assess points :(...
