The wheel combo will make my Cobra looking much better than in the 96-98 Cobra the rear wheels are not wide enough to fill the... the... whole where the wheel is fit. Do you know what i mean? [&:]

If you write 18x9 or 9x18... here in europe you see both versions.

No, sure not. 
But in Europe youo also see 9x18 because of tire dimension: 275/40/18 for example. Here you also begin with the wide of the wheel and in Europe everybody knows that 9x18 is a 18" wheel with 9" widness.

Hi folks
I'm from Switzerland and a new owner of a 1996 Cobra. It's very funny to drive the car but i think i will spend money for some modifications.

RE: First "soft" mods
Ok you’re in an American car now. so get 18x9 for the front and 18x10 or 10.5 for the back. Put some 315/40/18 tires on the back. Gears are great and before you do your work on x-pips and the such, you need to think about a few things. 1 catted or nocatted 2. LT's or shorties. flowmasters or maganflow's or the others. what I would do is get LT's and a catless x-pipe with MIL eliminators. With the 410’s you will need suspension work as well. Get LCA’s and UCA’s to help plant the rear end.
RESEARCH WHAT YOU WANT TO DO BEFORE YOU DO IT.
