I own an 89 Mustang with some mods, and the guy had 16" CObra R rims on the car. The chrome has pitted on them and I am looking to buy new Cobra R SVT rims. I do not know the actual difference between them and Cobra R rims besides the center cap. COuld anyone else inform me about the difference if there are any and also could someone point me in the right direction to a good site/place to buy these (17" or 18", but 18" will not fit I do not think becuz I have it lowered 2.5") with good tires. Every place only carries the Cobra R rims. Also, is there an advantage besides traction by buying 10.5 inch wides for the back and 9" in the front? Or going 18" in back and 17" in front? ANy insights will be welcomed.

Less weight for one by having 17 in front 18 rear. But also realise you cannot rotate your tires easily if you go with 17 in front 18 in rear OR 9" in front 10.5" in the rear.

Also the Cobra wheels and Cobra Rs are not identical, but very similar. Check my gallery i have Chrome Cobra R's. And just curious are you sure they were 16"s? Didn't know they made em that small.

I am positive they are 16". Also, will 18" fit with 2.5" lowering springs as long as I get low profile tires. And is there a good site to find them, because the cheapeast Ive found them is for $305 each without tires.
