Anyone know if anyone makes a white 03 cobra wheel in a 5 lug pattern?

I'd like a set for my burgundy vert as it has a white top.

Im buying chrome bullitts for my white 88 GT and just having the center section powdercoated white. I want chrome wheel lips. That may be something for you to consider. Ive never seen the 03 style in white

I dont think they make a white set. I also have a vert with a white top and wheels to match. I had mine professionally painted. You'll have to get the painted or powdercoated.

That's what I figured. I thought about contacting american muscle to see if their supplier might work something out. If I can't get a set of white 03 cobras, would a 18x9 saleen replica work on my 89? I'm referring to the S series that american muscle sells.

Thanks,
Adam

they'll work with the proper 5-lug conversion.....SN95 stuff.. The Saleens would look much better as a white wheel IMO too

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy basic bullits, powder coat the inside and chrome the outer lip?

This is the saleen replica I'm referring to http://www.americanmuscle.com/whsawh1.html

I didn't think an 18x9 would fit the front without a rubbing issue. Not to mention the back rubbing on a stock width fox axle. I do plan on converting to the 94-95 five lug up front and running 5 lug outback with a stock fox length axles.

265 is a wide tire. I didn't care for the 245's that cause really bad tramlining.

I emailed american muscle to see what they say.

No foxmustangman it wouldnt be much cheaper. I think it will be easier to powdercoat the chrome spokes though. I think it will look very clean with just the spokes white and the front and rear wheel lips chrome. I dont mind paying a lil extra to have it the way i want it.

Haha! Yeah the powdercoating isnt to expensive. The chroming can be though. It would probably cost half of what you would pay for a chrome replica wheel to just have the outer wheel lip dipped! F dat!
