10mm spacers on the car now and everything else is stock except for the rotors are a cheap slotted and drilled pair. The 5 bolt kit I just got off another car I bought for parts but I didn't change the spindles.The wheels do look like they a restocking out a bit more then my five lug wheels on mine.
What spindles were used? I used 1994 spindles with 13 inch rotors and pbr twin piston Calipers, I don't have your issues.
Wheels seam to be the exact same as the 4 bolt ones that were on the car when I got it and I've always had a problem hitting the control armsThe wheels do look like they a restocking out a bit more then my five lug wheels on mine.

Thanks. I've mostly had 1980-96 Ford trucks in the past so I don't know alot about rack and pinion steering. I was wondering about how to hook up some sort of stopper to keep from hitting. I'm also hitting the tire's with the front fenders a bit so I'm also looking for recommendations on adjustable shocks.Looks to me like a wheel size/offset issue, you need rack limiters
Calipers are job stock replacement from the 4 bolt. I got them before switching to 5 lug. The rotors and rear axle shafts are off a parts car I got and don't have any information on themI am gonna go out on a limb here but I think you have to have the SN95 front brakes to fit the Cobra R replica type wheels. If they are OEM FoMoCo R's for a 1995 then they will work and if they are the real ones I would sell them and fund a SN95 brake swap on the car. The hubs are too large on any of the Fox rotors to fit SN95 wheels with the exception of the wheels listed in this thread:
Just what this says, car has 5 lug conversion done with Ranger axles for the rear and Lincoln Mark VII for the front end. Im on my second set of wheels which dont fit because of the rotor snout being too long that it pops my center cap out. Ive tried Bullets and now Drift wheels from LMR. I thought 95 Cobra Rs fit. Any idea of what I need to know to order a set of wheels that I can actually have a center cap on? I really don't want to convert to sn95 spindles.

On the front? That would be a big part of your problem right there. That is a very wide tire for the front. I have only seen them on the front of a foxbody before with large flares on the fenders to move the tire further out to not have rub issues.275/35r17
If its not stamped, take a straight edge on the back RIM of the wheel, then measure up from where the wheel contacts the hub.... That is your backspace..Offset is usually stamped on the backside of the spokes. Usually a number in a circle or a number after a + sign
