I am looking for a set of 95 Cobra R's. If I run into a set of used ones, how can I tell if they are the real FMS or just something else? What is the difference anyways? Thanks folks.

center cap is one, it is the only one with a cobra, and a red R. The othere is the part number on the wheel. it should be: M-1007-C58 I believe.

The original Cobra Rs have the part # on the outside lip of the wheel. Most, if not all, replicas will have any ID #s on the inside for a cleaner look.
