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.

well, there will only be about 600 or so REAL sets of cobra R rims.
good luck!

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.

you'll be able to see the ford logo and part number on the outer lip of the rim, the snake with the red R and then they will be 17x8's not 9
