Default RE: need help identifing rims

ORIGINAL: tmajikman

since were on the wheels subject, what is the difference from the cobra 5 star wheel and the cobra r 5 star.
in 93 the cobra wheel was a blade style wheel.


94 and 95 the Cobra wheel was a 5 point rim with wider spokes.

the style was continued into 96 and 97, however the coloring on the wheel changed. I personally like the difference in color

The 1995 Cobra R wheel was produced with thinner spokes, while still being a 5 point star, the design in unmistakeable

the 1998 Cobra was introduced with yet ANOTHER style of wheel. Similar to the 95 R but still distinct in its own way!
The coloring was slightly differnent than the OEM 95R's but the casting was almost identical, except for the lip behind the spokes, where the 95 R was smooth!

2000 Brought us a lack of cobra's, but a thired coming of the Cobra R, Its wheel was also disticntly unique!


As far as I know, the 1999-2002 cobra's did not get their own uniquely designed wheel, However we are all familiar with the 03 cobra and 10th anniversary wheels... so I dont think I need to post them as well!

Thanks again Adder, I was trying to figure out what cobra wheels I have, chrome cobra r's, some of the heaviest damn wheels I have come across.
