I cant find 99 style, they are flat all the way throug the the center where the lugs are. All I can find are this style

Volstang · July 23rd, 2007, 11:53 PM

this is what mine look like but polished

mustangmanic · July 24th, 2007, 12:36 AM

yeah i kno wat you mean... those rims are actually very hard to come by... they dont even make them wider than 8'' actually... imo, you're better off just getting the 03 cobra rims (above)

I think the 03 cobra rims look better imo. Thats what I have

coffinator6 · July 24th, 2007, 02:08 AM

take them to a wheel place and have yours widened. it will cost a nice penny. I would just go with the 03 cobra wheels if you are on a budget and NEED 10.5" wide rears.

I gotta agree go with the '03 wheels.

No doubt on the new wheels. I went to ford today and they can get them in a 9 but getting them at cost is $400 each. So now the Question is 17 or 18 on the new wheels?
PROS and CONS if any please

Check out O E WHEELS on ebay stores. They are a good company and I know some people have ordered from them off the this forum...including me. They have really low prices and have a pretty wide selection but still have a good product. Usually takes about three weeks for the rims to get to your doorstep but a little wait is worth the $$ IMO. I got a 17x8's (front)and 17x10.5's (rear) Deep dish Bullitt rims with locking lugs shipped for like $500 and change. And for tires check out tire rack, They have Sumitomo 315/17-35's for $90 a piece.

17" if you plan to go to the track or street race, 18" just look better. If you do gears that will pick up any acceleration you lose from the 18" wheels.

17 it is. all I have to do now is pick style. Thanks for all the info. Any one want some factory 99 cobra's 17/8
