So I was going to finally get my 20 inch 1998 Cobra R replica wheels for my 06' this friday from OE wheels. I guess all of a sudden they no longer sell mustang wheels. WTF! So does anyone know of a place where they sell wheels for about the same price as they did?

That's weird b/c it looks like they're still vendors here. At least their forum is still showing up.

Why don't you shoot OEWheelsLance a pm as I am pretty sure that they still sell Mustang wheels.

Yeah it was weird, I went to the site, no ford section. I called them and they said no more mustang wheels from here on out. I sent him a message, thanks for the info guys.

Saw that they don't have any Mustang wheels on their Ebay site either.

Maybe they're not making enough money in the Mustang market.

Seems like a rather sudden decision, maybe Ford went after them for selling "counterfeits"?

I was kind of thinking that myself. Maybe an issue with using the terms Bullitt or Cobra R.
