If you want to run a 1" spacer, you can get the 05+ wheels. The 99-04 should bolt right on to a 5 lug swap.

Im estimating that I am losing 5-7 hp w/ these heavy, ****ty looking wheels. I knew they were heavy when I got the car, Ieven asked the guy at Discount Tire if they were heavy and he said they were a lil' heavy. Looking back I should of ditched theses wheels from day 1.

Hey OnyxCobra, I cam across a thread yesterday about you explaining that you had a fuel pressure problem thatcaused a low idle or dieing as startup. My car fires up perfect on the FIRST startup of the day, after that the rpms go to 500 for a sec then levels off at 750.

Damn...those look nice. When I first thought of Bullitts on Foxes I thought theyd look like ****. If I ever bought rimsbrand new Iwanted togo w/ 95/98 cobras, but I think Im over'em now.

my problem was different, as soon as my car turned off it lost all fuel pressure.
