It’s not as bad as I was assuming, but I’d still stick with 18’s as the largest I would go.

Not bad, but I'd still swap them out for a 17/18" wheel. They just don't fit the proportions of the car properly. I think 17"s look perfect.

I'll bet wheel rub when turning is really bad.

Put me in the don’t like it camp. Not only are they out of proportion, I don’t like the style either.

Click to expand...
If I had a 93 cobra and wanted to mod it, I would do all ford parts catalog build, that would include a real Gt40 intake.
No intake looks better. No it may not improve performance, but at least it looks good. I'd have the lower port matched to a set of mildly worked X heads.

As for the 20's, would I do it? Of course not.
But I don't hate it.
I do think 93 cobra's should always wear their original wheels, just sucks they are 4 lug (can they be drilled for 5 lug?

Clearly people do like the car (I realize it's not for everyone), 18 different bidders, 25 grand with nearly 7 days to go.
That's a chunk of change for any foxbody.

Yup. To each their own. I like the Cobra emblem and intake more.

I really like the GT40 too, though. Would never go through the swap, even on a non Cobra, with an explorer/Cobra intake as there's no performance advantage but substantial cost.

I did not think I would like that. I was wrong. That's pretty nice looking. Looks tastefully done. Love that hood and miss mine like that!! Oh, and one particular picture is much nicer than the rest for some reason.

Looks bada$$ with the 20's, I have cobra rims off of a 94 cobra. But would love to do something different.
