New Cobras!!
I got my new wheels today!! 
They're 17x9 chrome '95 cobras wrapped in YK520 Yokohamas!!!! And they look AMAZING! I'm so happy with how they turned out! I haven't really had much time driving with them yet, but I plan on spending the whole weekend cruising, rain or no rain! 
Here's some pics. Ya, I know my car is filthy. I just washed/waxed it last weekend, and will have to do it again soon! Tell me what you think!

They look great! It almost makes me want to change the wheels on mine.

Someday...
I finally drove it again yesterday on a backroad with lots of curves and oh how fun it was! I handled so well!! And don't worry, I was careful, I love this car and wouldn't do anything that I would be sorry for later!

Speaking of Cobra wheels, I saw one company that sells 17x8 for the front and 17x9 for the rear.
I believe they were putting the same tire size on all 4 though. I would of course want the widest that would fit on/in the rear. I wonder what the tread life of a wide tire on a 17x9 would be? Anyone have this setup?
The reason I am asking, my other car has 18x11 on the back, had 315's ($366 each) and lasted 2,500 miles, then tried 295's ($215 each), lasted 2,500 miles. Now I just bought 285's ($160 each) I'll see how long they last.
I don't want to get into a change the oil, change the rear tires with the Mustang as it is a daily driver.
Thanks,
