Default 17x9 Cobra R (1993 edition) replica wheels..

As my 92 sits in storage.... I wonder what I want to change next spring. I've looked at a ton of wheels. I think I've settled on this wheel. It's cheap.. MavroMont has them for $110 each I think. They look good (I like the silver, not the chrome) and they SHOULD be the correct size. I also don't want to convert to a 5-lug set up.
I hope...
Has anyone here bought these wheels from them? Any issues?
Or even if you've bought these from someplace else. I have the 1.5 Steeda drop with castor plates on my car.
Will I be okay with the 245-45 tire on the front and the 275-40 on the rear?
I've went thru the mega thread on the sweet looking foxes once. I really don't want to page thru all of them again looking for Cobra R pics.
thanks for your help

My wife has the chrome version on her vert from Wheel replica. They are 17x8.5 w/ the same size tires you are wanting to run.

I believe he is talking about the tri-bar wheels which have a black center and machined lip. I did not know they reproduced them, but if they are replicas they will be 5-lug because the Cobra R basically used the SN-95 suspension, hence the 94-94 stangs having the Tri-Bars.

Yeah the '93 Cobra R was 5 lug and used the 94-95 GT wheels, 17x8 I believe (at least the GTs were). The '95R wheels were 17x9.
