Finally... I think I've decided. I hope..

Has anyone bought the 95' Cobra wheels in four lug from Discount Tire?

I'm looking for the 17x9 version... all silver (no chrome ring like LRS has them).

Edit: I went a little further this time.... and checked more into it. They offer two versions... one with 20mm backspacing
and the other with 18mm backspacing.

From my research it seems MOST 9" wide wheels are coming with 20mm backspacing. I can get the following shipped
to my door for $1,085.00:

(4)1995 Mustang Cobra Replica wheels, 17x9, 20mm b.s.
(2)255-40-17
(2)275-40-17
(1)lug nut kit

I've been tossing wheel and tire sizes around for at least a month. Style as well. Last year I was liking the 03' Cobras. I don't
know, for some reason I'm just not sold on them. I like silver rims on my everald green fox.

Then I found they offer the 10th Anny wheels... but I don't want black, chrome... or the darker gray that I see at LRS.

I even had the 93' Cobra's pegged for a bit. But I can't get past the center cap not matching the wheel.

So I think I made full circle here... and no, my budget has no room for a 5-lug swap.

If anyone has pics of this combo on a emerald green fox, hatch.... that would be great. I think AlanW6 had them on his
emerald fox... but I can't find the pics.

Anyhow... thanks to everyone who chimed in. If you can confirm my choice of sizes will fit.. great, I'll sleep better at
night while waiting for them to arrive. Being a 92', I'm "supposed" to have the wider fenders. If I have to dial in a bit
of camber, so be it. Or even roll the lips a little...

Finally... I think I'm done??? ahahahahahahaaaahahhahaa!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you talking about '95 Cobra rims, or '95 Cobra R rims? Because '95 Cobra rims are similar to the ones I've got on my Cougar, without the grey accents and they only come in 8". THe '95 Cobra R wheels are similar looking to the '98 Cobra wheels, but are 9" wide instead of 8".

you have $1100 for four lug wheels and tires with fancy lug nuts but you dont have another $400 to do five lug and lay down a foundation for you to put proper brakes on later?

double work / double money sucks man.
