Thanks for the advice for the rims!!!Is there a 17 inch cobra,or cobra r rim and tire combo that would bolt rite up to my 93 lx? One guy told me he put a set of 17 inchers on his 93 lx,and the front weights rubbed on the struts.So he went with the stick on weights.And the backs hit the other set of shocks,he said you can take them off,there just for wheel hop.But I dont wanna take them off.Is there a direct combo I can use??Sincerely yours,brand new Mustang fanantic!!!!!!!!!

im assuming you still have 4 lug?

afs wheels sell nice 4-lug cobra rims. they are available in chrome, silver and polished whatever your looking for.

also if you order from there site they have combo's you can choose with 17x8 fronts and 17x9 so there is no clearance or rubbing issues on the front or rear wheels. not to mention, they have actual cobra center caps without the R, instead of the lame les schwab type ones with a shoe string snake or just a friggen head

if you dont care as much about the minimal rubbing 17x9's will have in the front, look them up on ebay and you can get some great deals on there rims.
