03/04 Cobra Rims

Does anyone know if someone makes these wheels, but in the bolt pattern for our cars? I have seen the Mustang Bullit style wheels for Fbodies (Frosty has them I belive) and I wanted to know if they made the 03/04's in bolt pattern for my 72. I love that style of rim, its a killer look.

Nah, I love the solid sharp 5 spoke design of those rims. Probably one of the nicest looking stock rims out there. Just with they made them 5x4.75

Yeah, but teh spokes are too thin. I want kind of a thick spoke rim, I think it will look better on my 72.

I've seen a "half civic/half mustang" with the exact wheels your talking about... so they are out there with different bolt patterns. Civic frame and front end, mustang rear clip (what a crap combination) Did you try looking through Summit?

Those are defenitly Eagle wheels.

Al there has to be a company out there that makes them because they have Cobra R's in Chevy bolt patterns.

I'm lucky, mustang wheels fit on W-bodys, :finger: J/K, I can get '05 GT take off's for $525, wheels AND tires. God I love W-bodys, LOL.

4.5" != 114.3mm

Do they just barely fit on? I pretty much only pay attention to the first gen Ws, so I never knew this....

They are Mustang Saleen replicas. I'm not sure the backspacing on them. I got them on eBay from a place that sells mostly mustang wheels but did have a few sets made for F-bodies.

I actualy did, but I want to move away from the TT2 style wheel. I did see a set of them for Camaros 17x8 for 450. If I was gunna do that, Id probably go with TT2 in the 2pc like UBG has on his AMX.

Yo Al, how about these??

You aren't buying spacers, you are buying adapeters. Plenty strong.
