OEM cobra R's are from the 95 cobra R, they have a serial number stamped on the out side ring of em usually around the air valve, and they are 17 by 9's from ford, 17 by 8s are knock offs. they are PLAYEEEEEEDDDDDD out on mustangs, but they still are one of the best looking rims you can get... you just seem them EVERYWHERE!

Yeh, the center is polished on those, and now that you say it.... a polished lip would be sweet....might have to see what I can find. Those are powdercoated gunmetal grey btw

the gunmetals are sweet. Spec does have a point though, the 95 R's are everywhere. Fortunately, they look really good on any newer model.
But remember, there are only so many wheels that can be tastfully done on a stang
('cept fo spinnaz, they are t3h h2wtn35s)
(no, not really, spinnaz are 73h dUhm) |

Cheapest I can find tires for my rims around here are 160 a piece but they are Kumho's.
I can get a full set of Yoyo's for 180/tire and that's with mounting,balancing,valve stems, caps, and diposal.
Prob end up doing that. Jack Williams is having a special on Toyo's in our area right now.
