Come on man, the ponies hands down. ESPECIALLY if you can get them in the bigger sizes which I had not seen before. Those wheels are classic. I understand a lot of people have the ponies, but they just make that car. Too many Cobra R's, and for what ever reason I dont really like the four lug cobra R. You can find ponies for $250 used. That's how I got mine. A lot of people try to get rid of theirs for 5 lug or R's. When you want to go 5-lug, you can find someone else to buy them for 250 and no money lost. Hell, a lot of the time you can find them with tires already on them with decent tread. Just be careful of Ebay. I've heard of people who win the bids and then don't get the right finish or color or something. Also, love that yellow bumper of yours. Looks even better on mine.

Here Was My Deal. Iv'e Got A 1993 And Love It. My O.e. 16' Ponies Have Less Than 20k On Them And Look Great. They Also Have Brand New Tires. Well I Started Looking @ Different Wheels, And Their Is Only A Few To Choose From For A 4-lug Style. (this Is Not My 1st Stang So I Knew This Already). All Thought The Pony's In My Opinion Still Look Sporty I Wanted Something Different. Well The Cobra R's Where Not Different. Seems Like Most Of The Ppl Go For The Cobra's. I Finally Decided On Some Chrome Saleen 17x9 All The Way Around. (yes They Are Replicas) I Have Had A Ton Of Complimants On Them So Far. I On The Other Hand Am Not To Concerned About The 5-lug Conversion. Roughly $1300.00 For Them But I Work @ A Tire Store And Got'em For Cost. I Do Have My Pony's For Sale. Asking $500.00 Obo. Tires Only Have About 2,000 Miles On Them If That. I Had To Install Them To Drive Car Back From Orlando Where I Purchased Car In Aug. The Beast Still Had The Original Goodyear Eagles On It. Confirmed Because The Dates On The Tires Were 1993. (dryrotted To Hell).
So Good Luck On Your Journey.
