Cobra R's and a five lug conversion...

Cobra R's and a five lug conversion won't fit?????

I want to put Cobra R's on my 91 GT but my friend (whom I got the car from) says that I can't use the center caps because he did the 5 lug swap using Mark VII rotors and ranger axles. Anyone have any ideas what this is about?

Thanks.

those lincoln rotors have a huge center bolt/bearing compared to other 5 lug parts.... and with those parts most wheels cant use the center caps...

If you buy real Ford Cobra R's with 24mm backspacing they do fit on Lincoln rotors. I know from experience. 36mm backspace wheels have fitment issues with Lincoln rotors, but the real Ford M-179's are hard to find anymore. The only problem is these wheels make the stock front rotor look tiny. Oh well.
