Anyone know of some good sites to get rims and tires??

I am looking for something besides Cobra "R" rims (everyone has them)

Will 19" x 10.50" fit under a 01' cobra??? 315???

Is the car lowered? Are you planning to lower it? If so, I wouldnt recommend anything bigger than 18" rims otherwise you might rub the fenderwell ih you hit a bump. By the way, whats wrong with the ones you got? They look good in the picture on your link. Are they chrome? Cant tell from the pic. If your wanting to replace them to fill in the HUGE gap between the tire and fenderwell, I suggest just lowering it. I got 17 x 9 rims and the car lowered about 2" and it looks sharp. I'm gonna put a pic of it in my profile once I get a chance. Good luck with it, and put a new pic on your site when you get it done.

I lowered it 1.5" (Ebachi Pro Kit) Maximum motor Sports Camber/Caster Plates, BAER Tie rod ends.

The Rims i Have now are polished Chrome Stock SVT rims 17"

I am lookin to going to 19's if they will fit.

If not i am going with 18's with 315's on the back.

I know somone who had 315's in the back, but she had issues wiht clearance on the quad-shocks.

Just my opinion. YUCK! I know its hard to find something original that everyone else is'nt doing, but I dont like how those look on Mustangs. Especially not a Cobra. What about the Steeda rims? They look Sweet.
