When I first bought my car, I really wanted a 10th Anniversary Cobra because I loved the wheels and the interior trim accents, but just couldn't see myself driving a car with RED leather. I have been looking at wheels for a while now, and the 10th Anniversary rims only come in a 17x9" wheel. I did some messing around with photoshop, and photoshopped the Anthracite FR500 18x9" wheels on my car. What do you guys think? 10th Anniv. or FR500 Anthracite wheels? Heres some pics... (10th Anniv. wheel pic is a legit pic, and THANK YOU to whomever I stole it from... heheh... hope ya don't mind? FR500 Pic is my car with them photoshopped on. I couldn't find any silver Cobra's let alone silver mustangs with them on it.

Depends. It's not a 10th an, but it will be an easier swap, considering you don't have to purchase new rubber. I'm leaning to the FR500 myself, chorme though. Personally, the stock 17's are smaller rims then I'm used to.

I like the FR500's, I have been looking at them myself for a sonic blue, only in chrome. I don't think you can go wrong with either choice. However, if you want to be different go with the FR500's.

they are intrax in the rear (slightly higher spring rate) and stock shortend springs in the front. Its not actually raked as much as it looks in the pic, i think its just the angle
