The front caps are close, but the dust boot does interfere. Might have to do some custom work to them to get them on there. They will work though!

The car looks much better. Those cobras are my least favorite mustang wheel ever, aside from turbines, of course.

Nice...

I really need to find a set of Bullitts and get my cobra wheels off.

However, with weddings, vacations, birthdays and other summer activities....it will need to wait

Yeah there were a lot there, we stayed for about 20 minutes and got like 3 or 4 race attempts on the way out... LOL. Yes the car needs better brakes, maybe I should go with some Cobra brakes and toss the GT discs on this one.

Thanks, yeah the paint on the car is real nice. Some how we got the exact car she wanted, and with a few more mods it will be perfect!

Yeah, the Cobras were alright, but these look 100% better. Chrome on black works in my opinion!

Love the ultralites, I actually have a set of chrome 18's in the garage. Just to clarify, are those 18's or 17's?
