I have an 03 silver cobra that is 10th anniversary...but it doesnt have the rims that are on the black or red cars..can anyone tell me if it was an option that didnt come on the car or if it was because those rims didnt look right on a silver car? thanks

your car was not bought new or they would have come stock. someone changed the wheels and sold them.

FYI - If you really like the 10th Anniversary wheels, you can buy them brand new for $149/each at gefracing.com...

There are two versions of the 10th Anniversary wheel. The one that comes from the factory on the 10th Anniversary cars and the Ford Racing Cobra Wheel wich is aftermarket from Ford. I bought these wheels to mount my racing tires on. They have a silver (painted) finish where the OEM is black. Same wheel, different paint.

Might be interested in those if you decide to get rid of them. Consider a trade for stock chrome ones? PM if interested.

Interesting... So is this color change that noticable? If I bought a replacement wheel from gefracing.com and put it next to my OEM 10th Anniversary wheels, would the difference be obvious? :??:

yes you would. one looks polished, one looks charcoal. IMO charcoal looks better, but i would have bought the aftermarkets if they came deep dish. i'll be selling my 10th wheels soon if anyone wants them..

Thanks for the info...that's good to know.

I actually considered getting rid of my 10th Anniversary wheels before. I figured at $149/each brand new, I'd just buy another set if I ever wanted to put them back on the car. Since the OEM ones appear to be slightly different, I guess I'll hold onto them now so in 30 years I won't lose points at the car show for having the wrong paint on the wheels! ;-) :-D
