Does anybody have pics of GT500 rims on a fox body? I see where they are making them in 4 lug but i'm not sure if they would look good. They're making '03-04' Cobra rims in 4 lug too and they look gooood. Thanks.

Well that puzzled me too, then somebody explained it like this: You're getting to a point faster, therefor you have less time to accelerate, which sort of makes sense. And plus my street tires are shorter than the slicks so the 'gearing' so to speak is different.

There is a pic of a Notch with those rims on it in the Dec 2006 issue of 5.0 Mustang and Super Fords in the wheel and tire section near the back.

Im with Nick12269, They looked like ass.

Thats what i was afraid of, I was wondering if anybody else was thinking the same. The 03-04 cobra rims look badass on them though and they make them in 4 lug, I might look into those a lil closer.

It's a small pic, but you get the idea.

That's a sweet looking mustang ruined with the GT500 wheels. I am finishing up my 5 lug conversion and looked at the GT500s and FR500s - both look like ass IMHO - the only other wheel that I looked at was this one - the 10th anniversary wheels. Don't know if you can get it in 4 lug. I ended up with chrome 03/04 Cobra replicas - same old, same old, but they just look badass IMHO.
