Will 03-04 Cobra 18" wheels fit in the front if i go the 50resto cheapo swap?
Will Salene replica 18s fit in the font as well? This is for the center cap issues for the wheel...

Thanx

Yea, the 5.0 resto (and other) cheap 5-lug conversion kits are just Mark 7 rotors and Ranger axles. They have the same hub as your stock 4-lug setup has and pretty much none of the sn95 rims will fit....and those that do you can not use the center cap because the hub sticks out too far.

Save yourself the money and spend a few hours at the boneyard, I am sure there are some u-pull-it type places near you.
