Wheel Question

[5LiterFever]

I've got an opportunity to get an awesome deal on a set of stock 98 cobra rims. There won't be any problems fitting them on my 95 GT right? Just want to make sure before I buy them.

If they are true 98 Cobra rims, then no, you will not. They could be knock-offs and could be for a 4 lug fox body. If that is the case, then no, they will not fit.

They're definetly the real thing. My friend has a 98 cobra and just got a set of Welds, so looks like I'll be buying the stockers off him.

I had the 98s on mine...Just swap em over...they're direct fit...

Don't pay too much for them as they can be had brand new for $109.00. I think they look pretty good!

Nice. Sweet deal too. Can't wait to see pics, but then again, I don't think we should have any problems getting pics out of you .

Man, I didn't realize they could be bought that cheap. He wants $600 for them w/tires, I thought that was a pretty good deal.

The other side of the coin.....436.00 rims...50.00 to ship....then 450.00 for tires...the 100.00 of so for mount/balance/stems. then the wait for them all to show up.. the hassle factor.. ....the math says you'll be out damn near a grand...So for 600.00, tires being decent and all, pop em on, your done..as always, it depends on the budget...
My 98s are mint...not a damn scratch or chip, with tires that will go this Summer and then some....I'm asking 550.....thats half the money, half the hassle..
Not trying to sell em here, there selling local to save 100.00 or so shipping...
