Hey guys, does anyone sell mustang replica wheel that will bolt up to our marks? Without doing a hub swap etc? I'm really looking for a bullitt wheel or maybe a 03-04 cobra wheel. Chrome of course. I just bought a set of wheels a few months ago in silver and now I wish I got chrome. Thanks guys.

Try to doing a search on baggedtaco and look at his website, some of the guys here on this site dont take kindly to noobs like yourself who ask simple questions like that.

I checked with the custom wheel shop and I've decided on the 17x9 03 cobra's. What size tire would work best with that size rim. I have the standard height coil conversion.

I believe 265/45/17 is the widest that you can go once again use the search and look at some of the old threads.

The bolt pattern is different. Mark VIIIs are 5 on 4.25" stangs are 5 on 4.5". You can swap to Cobra hubs but stang rims have a different offset so you may have rubbing issues ae they just won't look right. IMHO your better off getting rims from BRad. He has a good rep with FN10/MN12 guys and the prices are resonable especially for repro wheels in the right bolt pattern/offset for the car.

You can fit 275's out back on a 9" wheel.

Brad has tire deals also, if you like his tires, he can mount and balance before shipping. He's also good at pointing you in the right direction on tire size or answering any questions.

And his prices are very hard to beat.
