the 93 cobra R wheels are alot alike the newer tri-bars except they are black with a chrome center, my question is are they the same exact wheel just painted ?

Good question Doug, they do look very close

It appears that they were only on the 94-95's. Maybe they did keep using them for the next two years

 

Mustangfun101 had them on his 97 GT ???

 

Hmmm. I didn't see any on the timeline but I could be wrong. Maybe he added them aftermarket

 

hmm, i dont think they were offered in 96-98 model years

 

Yes they are just painted tribars with a chrome center cap and a chrome lip.

 

Well I'll be. I like them better on the Cobra R though

 

are they 5 or 4 lug though?

 

wow, i am not sure, i am thinking 5 lug.

 

5 lug, the cobra Rs used a similar set up to the 94 cobra as far as brakes.

They are the tribars painted, I got a set off a 95GT but I am not painting mine, with burgundy, it looks better the stock color.

Many of the parts were borrowed from the 94 Cobras.

 

the tri-bar wheels are fugly, but the painted ones are halfway decent

 

you know what they say about opinions........

 

Yah, keep them to yourself, i keep forgetting that IMO thing.

 

My mom always used to tell me, 'opinions are like A-holes, everybody's got one!"

 

that's what I was thining, but you forgot the last part of it.....

"opinions are like a-holes, every one has one and they all stink, except mine"

 

ha ha, it should say "opinions are like a-holes, every one has one and they all stink, except Doug's"

 

I think the tri-bars look great on my 91!!

 

I dont, but its not my opinion that matters, its a nice car minus the wheels IMO, very nice shape.

 

funny, my football coach says the exact same thing about excuses

 

hey matt, that GT looks great !!!
