It sounds like your 5 Lug conversion was done with Lincoln Rotors and if that is the case the caps will not fit unless you go with SN95 parts.

i dont think you have to go sn95 just to fit that cap. Some friends had bullits and can fit the caps in front with lincoln rotors with a little modification, but i dont know if you can do it with the cobra r wheel

You need the SN95 setup to correctly fit the center caps on your fox body. I've been down that road this last winter. You will gain a better turning radius on top of the center caps fitting if you go with the SN95 setup.

use a spacer just enough, use short bulge lug bolts.
if you dont have enough thread get longer wheel studs pressed in your stock rotors (Moroso #46180 or #46220)
if you take off your dust cap you need to grind the spindle just enough

Your wheel is a big dust cap.
