I tried on some 95 cobras as some of you may remember, but the rears werent as flush as I wished they would have been. I was able to get these off my friend but wanted some more opinions. What do you guys think?

ok from the 2 pics i'd say the 03's definently fit the wheel well ahole lot more and gives it a better stance, so id say keep those on, but if you lowered it about a inch or so those 95's would sit nice. id say go for the less work and keep the new rims on [patriot]

I agree that I needa lower it more. I have eibach pro kits in there now with the isos removed from the rear. I'm going to remove them from the front and see what kind of drop ill get from that. But I'm leaning more towards the 03s [Razz]

Your original 94-95 Cobra wheels look great!

I would get them widened to 10.5" and run a 315-35-17 with a 30mm spacer and it will look flush and aggressive!

Those 03-04 Cobras don't look as good on your ride imho.

I like sn95s where the tires are almost tucking. I just needa do some research to see where I can get the best results. Anybody know what setup would drop my car a bit more and not ruin ride quality?

you would have to get coilovers to do that...best coilovers for mustangs that i hear is the maximum motorsports. very expensive. my sn95 is literally tucked and slammed. went with generic coilovers and had to do some custom shit to get it the way i wanted it to. if i could do it all over, i woulda just saved my time and effort to get the mm coilovers
