Thanks for the quick response! Are you running rear disks? i actually would rather convert the car to 5 lug. I think the 4 lug cobra r's look funny, so I can use a stock length 5 lug fox axle, buy the bracket, reuse my caliper and just buy the 5 lug disk?

5 lug conversion, k member and frame connectors

What is the best and cheapest way to convert to 5 lug? Will std 5 lug gt/lx rotors work at the front? I heard the factory cobra rotors stick out more, but I want the front to be the same as the gt/lx for wheel options. What about the rear. I also need to buy a k member and coil overs and frame conne...

I just saw a picture of a 93 Cobra R with the real ford 95 cobra R's and it looks killer. I think I will buy a set of the real 95 cobra R's. I know they make a 5 lug 87 to 93 front rotor, but do you know if they make the rear 5 lug rotors for our car? Thanks so much for the help! This website rocks!

So the 87 to 93 front rotors just bolt up with no other modifications? Problem solved for the front. What about for the rear? Will the backspace from the 87 to 93 cars work on mine? I don't like the way the factory rims sit inwards but I don't want them to stick out past the lip. Thanks for all the ...

From what I understand, they will stick out on the front. I want the front wheels to stick in alittle and the rear to be close to flush. I don't like the...
