I just found these and wish I had the extra cash right now. I don't think any members are from my area but Isn't this a good price for these?
Im in the market for some nice rims or will be hopefully in the near future. My wife says her HHR gets wheel first since we've had it for 3 years and the mark for 3 weeks. We'll see how it goes, I might just hit a curb and NEED new wheels :shifty:

I see Mustang bolt pattern Cobras all the time for $200-$300, they are only $400 new and everyone has them.
You do realize its a different bolt pattern, right?

I wasnt sure what year bolt pattern will work. I thought they were the same around the same year.
I didnt know they were so affordable for an 18" wheel. How does this width affect the ability to tuck the wheels using the "Ray Switch" which will be my next purchase as soon as I am sure My trans is going to hold out.

You need Cobra hubs in the rear and Mustang Hubs in the front to wear a Mustang wheel. You will also need to have your rotors redrilled for the new bolt pattern.

Alright then it looks like a set of replica will be the way to go. Ive seen a few sets on members cars I believe.
Thanks for the info

dang you guys really know how to crush a brothas dream. I should have known, I know these cars have a cash flow I.V. straight from your wallet.
Its still cheaper then my 98 XJ8 I just got rid of to buy this.

those jags are nice cars with their fancy smancy aluminum frames..... but they just dont have the feel of a mark VIII.... hubs are not that expensive.... i think you could change them all out for about 200 pending on where you get them
