Went to work today, just like every other day, only to come out and see the wheels stolen off of it!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: After cursing for a while, filing a police report, I went through the garage to find a spare set. I guess these will have to do...

Well.....I guess those are just going to have to do. Sucks man people just have no respect for others' property.....hope ur pullin' through alright. :D
Those are just wheels you had laying around?You had 8 holes on it didn't you?If they find out who stole them,tell the thieves "thanks".8 holes are good for s only.
start looking at all the fox/sn95 mustangs around town, you had the cobra rims right?
Here's a pic from right before the crime happened:

Guys, I think he was kidding about the 8-holes being stolen...
I am retarded you can plainly see your rims in your sig.:hick:
If you don't get your 8 hole rims back, I have a set that are in better shape than yours were I'll trade for your Cobra's. I'll even include the 10 year old brand new (400 mile +-) tires. Let me know! (LOL)
:mullet: :burnout: :shakeass: ;) :rollin:
Nice,someone finally got those.
I thought about getting them years ago but they only came in 5lug.
After emailing the company and getting a no we won't make you a set in 4 lug i decided i'd go 5 and get fr500s.
Then to my amazment about a year later they make them in 4lug,go figure.
Surprised you didn't go deepdish for the rear.
Me too. They look good. If I ever get rims they will be dished.
Sorry guys, didn't have the money for the bigger rear tires, and I think my car is better suited for an even look front to back.

I had those tire... Stuck pretty good... with all 152 HP LOL.
shagy shagy. :bowdown:
HELL YEA looks FREAKING AWESOME!!!
and hahahaha Im glad you used my story i told you haha
Too bad you didnt take a pic with it up on jackstands like I mentioned and played them longer
Btw time for it to come down a inch or 2
then it will looks even sweeeeter
Looks nice...hey if you want 8 holes back I have some in the barn I'd trade you straight up. LOL.
He should run the Mach 1 springs to bring it down no?
mach 1 and bullit springs lower the ass too far... but they suit the front perfect.
its screamin' slam me down
+2
I was about to say wtf somebody stole 8 holes!?!? :screwy: :wtf:
The Cobra Rs look great, the gunmetal makes them stand out from the crowd. ;)
I knew you were lying when you used the word "HOODLUMS" :flip:
Looks badass man, nice!
Thanks for the compliments, guys. And I agree about the gunmetal; between that, the chrome lip, curved spokes, and rivets, it doesnt really look like a Cobra R.
So does anyone know where I can just get a set of 2 Mach 1 springs I can use for the front? I don't really wanna touch the back at the moment, I just want to lower the front 1-1.5 inches.
a guy over at the mach 1 registry had listed all 4 (im asuming) for 50 bucks.
wheels look great btw

Hey kingcars the bird is looking good, keep up the good work!
I scored a set of mach1 springs on ebay for $48 shipped! so keep you eyes open you'll find a deal somewhere
When you get the originals back, I'll give you $50 for those...
Thanks for the info on the springs. Will I need anything else for the swap?
:rollin:
Sheesh...where were you guys when I put out the word that I was looking for 8-holes...
just regular 2000 GT springs lowered my TC perfectly... and it still handles very nice too....
I figured you stole them!
Great info! Can I see some pics?
any mustang spring would lower our cars. our springs are 14" vs. 12" mustang springs. y
any mustang spring would lower our cars. our springs are 14" vs. 12" mustang springs. you want to probably use the 94-04 springs, due to the higher spring rates.
Good deal, thats what I'll look into getting.
Someone tried to steal my Turbines with brake dust and blue center caps. The wheels look good and they should work for the next few years or so.
Are the GT and V-6 springs the same?
i doubt it
the mach 1 spings should give a better ride and handaling without giving up much to the gt springs in terms of harshness
v6 springs i would think would have completely different spring rates seeing as the motor is lighter then the 8, and its not suppose to be as good in handling as the GT/Mach1/Cobra
but thats just an assumption
Ok well I'm working on a deal on a set of steeda springs. The guy said the springs are shorter than stock Mustang springs, but won't compress as much. Would they make my car too low? I don't want my car any lower than this (which uses 00GT springs):

Just got a hell of a deal offered to me on some 02 GT springs. I'm jumpin on it.
Nice!!
that will be the icing on the cake for you man!
Me likes, nice choice. :)
