I like them! The 4 lug cobra R's as Im sure will be mentioned are fugly and overly used but the smoked style suits the car IMO.

Yeah, the aftermarket Cobra Rs aren't my favorite. I think the new 2004 Cobra 5 spoke or the 2000 Cobra 5 spoke wheels would look nice done up like that?

The wheels themselves are not my favorite. The color combo looks killer. Those smoked wheels look great on the car.

Thanks all for the comments... I'm thinking of switching the car over to 5-lug and installing the 92-93 Saleen wheels in gun metal...

Oooh....that does look good. Is gunmetal the new chrome?

I wish I had the cash for some new wheels like those, guess I'll have to paint my 10-holes gunmetal. :x

I read minds :D

Anyways, I always thought the new Mach 1 Magnum 500's would look awesome on four eyes..

I have a pick somewhere on my computer at work of a Black modified late 80s Mustang GT with the new magnum Mach I wheels on it and it's lowered a little....man they look good on a fox Mustang, sure they'd look at home on a four-eye stang!

Think I got the pick from www.brooklynmustangcentral.com in the pics forum.

I am not a fan of aftermarket wheels in general, but I will readily concede that the smoked look is a good one. The color really looks good on that car.

i love cobra-r's and those look freaking badass. what does your car run? looks more like an auto-x car to me though.

give me four more lugs for the entire car and I like it a lot!

Thats saying something considering I don't care for airdam-less Capris or 95 Rs.

But that car is just........"RIGHT"......

That combo looks good. The Saleens would look good too and I might even prefer them in gun metal...especially in 5-lug.

I really like the look of the Cobra R's on it. I really did not think that I would, but it looks great on that car
