Id go with the 2002 cobra wheels, they look a lot better and not that many people have them. Gene Evens is a good place to buy from also.

No '00 cobra either....

One thing on either of those two choices is that you should also concider is a set of wheel spacers for the rear as both sit in pretty far in the rear on our cars. They look sort of funny.

the 98's are only 8" wide while the 95's are 9" wide and there is a little difference on how the spokes bend in. The 98's spokes stick out more.
