Cool

Ended up costing 250 each for the wheels, 550 for the tires and 16 for the lug nuts..so around 1700 for everything with balance and lifetime warranty...They will be in Wednesday! But i have my car torn apart so prob wont be able to get it out for a couple more weeks.

50HP might be a little much but I would say every bit of 35HP

Well, I thought I had done good to wait this long for the wheels. I head in today to get them(50 miles 1 way). Get there and they said it wouldnt be til Saturday. They had to order them from Texas instead of Ohio. I more than enough let them know what I thought about that..

I like the Cobra R's, but has anyone seen a set of the 2000 Cobra R's like on the real Cobra R. They are 18's and so looked so sweet on a Mustang I saw the other day.

I like the wheels but it just seems to me
like everyone has them. So I don't want them
for that. I like my stock Cobra wheels. But
I would like some roush 18" wheels.

I got tires, lifetime warranty and Chrome Cobra R rims (17x9, they are OE concepts) for 1300 bones out the door. Thanks to a friend at Belle Tire. It looks sweet, my car looks totally different. I will post pictures as soon as it stops raining and I can wash the car. I get so many compliments now.

I saw the 00 Cobra R wheels too, I wanted them for my car, but my buddy couldn't get them in 4 lug. I would have gone elsewhere, but I get a smoking deal. Rims I got listed for 310, and I got them for 200 a piece.
