Cobra Rims

N29468 · March 31st, 2008, 01:38 PM

I have been going back and forth if i want 17" or 18" rims and if i want black or chrome rims. Please tell me what you guys think and can you tell me what size and what kind of Cobra wheels are the chrome ones are.

The first pic looks like 18" black FR500s (similar to the ones I'm running).
The Chrome '03-'04 Cobras are 17s.

I really like the '03-'04 Cobras, but I will lean towards the 18" FR500s. I've been running 18" wheels on my Stang for many years (Y2K Chrome Cobra Rs and now the black FR500s) and love the look of this size on 1st & 2nd gen SN95s. I love the staggered look too.

Something to consider when going with the 18" rims is the cost of tires will definitely go up too. So, if you are on a budget keep that in mind.

They look pretty good. Ill have to keep them in mind.

N29468 · April 2nd, 2008, 10:11 PM

Any comments on the Nitto555's or the website?

RavensChild · April 2nd, 2008, 10:13 PM

IMO i would go with 18" black with chrome lip. I just love the look of them.

N29468 · April 2nd, 2008, 11:54 PM

I always liked these better than the Cobra rims though they do have similar characteristics

ZOOTOXIN · April 8th, 2008, 03:56 AM

I like these as well. never saw them on a stang though. I think these would work...def on a fox body...IMO
