Looking too sell my real ford racing cobra R's in mint condition not a single scratch, they have bf Goodrich g sports 245/45 all the way around, the rims were purchased little over a year ago and have been on the car 8 months, only seen 5000 miles on tires since this isn't my daily driver. Price is 1000 + some 4 wheels obo, can't even get these anymore even summit sold out, need to free up some cash for a t5 conversion, If you have one of those and want too trade I may be interested

Paid 275 a rim and 130 a tire

What are you looking for price wise?

Posted by epic4444 (Member # 8667) on :

Asking 1200, the tire are very fresh and have a lot of life left, would possibly consider selling rims without tires

Just a quick heads up:

The 17x8's are 98 cobra wheels. They look really similar but a trained eye can see the difference. The real 95 R's are 17x9's.

Not really sure what your talkin about, the rims I have are identical too the ones in the ford racing link I posted, so unless the official ford racing website is wrong then they are genuine Cobra R's like I stated

Down too sell them 1000 without the rims

There are two different styles of Cobra wheels that look like 95 R's. In 1998 the Cobra came with a look-a-likes because of the popularity but they were only 17x8's and looked a little different. The difference is in the lip of the rim right below the bead of the time and the spokes themselves are slightly different.

Lol, 95 R's were made for racing. Now why would they make them 1" slimmer for racing? False info here, real ones are 17*9...trust me I've been tracking for many many years.

First off, Genuine Cobra R's are 5 lug. Tell me.., was the limited 1995 Mustang Cobra R 4 lug or 5 lug ? And yes they were 17x9.

Case closed......

They may be genuine Ford Racing 4 lug wheels, however not the authentic Cobra R's.

Case closed......
