Do you have 4-lugs or 5? The FR500's are only availale in 5-lug. I like the Y2K cobra's.

Those are the rims I have, I like how they look. Get them in 18", 17's look too small in the Y2K style

I know about the 5 lug conversion...if I get the FR500's I'm going to do a Baer big brake 5 lug conversion...disks all around. I dont know...I dont want to just be one of the crowd with some Cobra R's. But then again...you dont see many of the '00 R's. I just dont know if I will like chrome, and they dont look good in anything else IMO. The FR500's would be perfect for my wants...but money is an issue there.

Yeah, that swap will cost a fortune. I like the 03 cobras too...several places have them in four lug.

Depending on what you want for you car in the future... you might want to just do the 5-lug swap now. I think the FR500s would look amazing on your car, and the 5-lug swap wouldn't hurt.
