1996-1998 Mustang GT wheels October 06, 2006, 11:19:36 AM Has anyone had any experience with these wheels? I am wondering if the 10 hole center cap would happen to fit them or if anyone knows of a plain cap that would fit.Thanks,Brent Quote Selected

Then having a decal made with the appropriate logo and put it on the cap. I haven't had one in my hand yet, but I am assuming that they are aluminum.If there aren't any known caps out there that will fit as Nate said, that may explain why I haven't seen these wheels used on many other cars yet. But then it could be a matter of taste too. I like Cobra wheels that Shane 302 posted but personally I think the style is too "aggressive" for the '84-'86 XR-7 body style. Brent Quote Selected
1996-1998 Mustang GT wheels Reply #11 – October 08, 2006, 01:23:44 PM if you got the flat ones you could epoxy or 3m tape some embems on there. some of the later mn12 tbirds had these "jelie" emblems glued to the center caps of their wheels. they were kind of a clear rubbery meteriol with print on the backside. they are kind of like the tbird emblems in the steering wheel center of the 87-88 tbirds (dont know if any of the other cars have them as i only have experiance with 87-88s). i had pulled one out and glued it to the bottom edge of my rear view mirror at one point. anyway....figured id put that out there.

BrentI don't think they are as "aggressive" as the 10th Anny Cobras. Actually, I think they would look great on your car. :D Quote Selected
