Did the 93 cobra rims ever come in 5 lug? and anyone know where is the best place to get them in case they did or the 4 lug version i guess.

I realy want to do a 5 lug conversion on my fox body but im realy set on getting those 93 cobra rims.

thanks for any help

No they never came in 5 lugs. There was a story on the corral about someone who made a few sets of 5 lug 93 cobra rims but the pics of them just looked like Tbird 15s of the same style.

Cheers,

Well thats news! [Big Grin]

That guy might lag hard on making those available for public consumption. I know he lagged with the latest batch of "Pony R's".

Should i even bother with the conversion, or just gt the 4 lug cobra's.

Its a lot of work to get the 5 lug on and the rotors are smaller. And the cobra brake kits are hard to find.

Should i just put on better calipers on the stock 4 lug?

Psshhh, you can find cobra kits all day if you look hard enough. rotors are smaller if you go 5- lug how do you figure that?
