Unless you find a replica set (not sure if such a set is even available) with four-lugs, you'll need to switch to a five-lug setup to put an authentic set of 98 wheels on a 93.

Didn't the 98 Cobra come stock with the 95 Cobra R style wheels? If that's the case there are tons of pics of 93s with those style wheels.

That looks great!! I've always liked the '98 Cobra wheels more than the '95R wheels.

Classic, indeed. I just like the look of the '98 a bit more. Just my opinion, Z. :beer:

Hahaha Hope to meet you someday. You should come to our annual Fox BBQ on July 11th at Bethpage State Park. It's the 6 annual & always a fantastic time. Only prerequisite is to bring your Fox Mustang.

Sounds like a good time. A cruise to Bethpage might be nice (weather permitting, of course). Which one of your Foxes will you have there?

Not sure yet. I usually don't make that decision until a week before. Last year I took the Cobra. It's certainly a great time!! Try to attend.

For me, I much prefer the 93 Cobra wheels. They were/are such and iconic look.

Figures. There's no accounting for taste. ;)

(I like stirring the pot with someone from TX even more than someone from NY!)
