I woudl certainly like to see how they look! I also like the way the 94 Cobra wheels look on our cars. They carry over the TRX wheel themed smooth center caps with the lug nut holes. I just remembered I built a model of a 1966 Tbird and used a set of 93 Cobra wheels on it and it looks great! I have a couple of other wheel swaps I did not model cars. I need to take pictures!

Ah, I found the member picture who has the 94 Cobra wheels installed... Sweet!

Do you have center caps?I wonder if stock 10 hole/TC wheel caps would work.Nice looking wheels....different.The front of my Sport sat tall like that once upon a time.I used 1999 Mustang springs all around to lower it (alignment afterward).Worked wonders for looks and handling.Keep it up,one step at a time.My first '88 was red.I like it.

I was taught that the V-6 and V-8 springs are the same.I got mine from a V-6 car and they have been great.....they were also free,and that didn't hurt.LOL.

There you go.Mine dropped right in,and,as I stated,I had an alignment done as well (I swapped the rack,LCA's and everything at once).

my 88w/ the stock 10 holes and cougar centers
strange though, to me, that they originally came with a set of ford caps

One day, after I am filthy rich, i will have those 03/04 4lug cobras though. waaaaaay too much else to fix until then though!

Yes,they all fit with zero issues.I was also replacing my steering rack,pump,strut bushings,and lower front control arms and I had an alignment.You really need to do that when you lower a car.

As far as stock wheels go my favorites are the turbines...if i ever did a 5lug conv i would probably snag a set off a lincoln towncar and put cougar center caps in em :D
