    Thanks, fellas!!! The charcoal painted inserts on the wheels match the charcoal trim on the car quite well.
    I can't be any happier with my wheel choice for this car.

    As a general rule of thumb the 05+ mustang wheels fit better due to the off sets being closer to the svo

    When i bought them the choices were 87-93 and 94-and up. They fit fine. No rubbing. I had the rears machined a little so they didnt stick out to far. Rolled the rear quaters too. No problems at all.

    Nice! The window tint and the black rims really gives the car a bad ass look.

    I had the 99 Cobras about 10 years ago or so, but swapped them out for some Konig Villains. It required a full SN95 swap with Fox front A arms and Fox length axles. I no longer have the car, however.

    I have run 3 sets of rims, including the stockers. Here are the 97 Cobras that I ran for a few years and the current TSW Nurburgring wheels. The 5mm difference in offset between the Cobras and TSW's made a much larger difference than expected, IMHO. Personally I prefer the TSW offset (+35mm), but of course, eh?? Both sets of wheels are 17x8 running 245/45R17's for reference.

    Svono50, the tsw wheels do they tuck in far enough to not rub the fender lips? Are you still using stock svo front suspension? Still on the stock springs?
