My Chrome Cobra R's are Real Ford Wheels, I bough them from my Ford Dealer in 2000.

However if they are knock offs made by CJ or AM or some of these other companies they are simply Cobra style.
We all know the 2010 SVT style wheels sold by AM are not exact duplicates of the actual wheels.
Besides quality they look physically different.

I probably should have cut this into a couple sentences but who cares
00R>95R>93R fwiw
I tried finding a set of FRPP chrome 00R wheels to put on the R and preserve the stock wheels but I was unsuccessful as it seems people ran out of stock just about the time I bought the car.

I have Cobra R's from Ford. The obvious they aren't from a Cobra R but I call them what ford calls them. aftermarkets are copies so at that point I would just call them 5 spoke ie black 5 spoke wheels or chrome 5 spokes but I'll still call mine Cobra R's

New to the forum, Here's pics of my Fox...
And my son's:
I am the original owner of the black GT, my wife and I bought it in June of '92. The red LX was purchased at a storage unit auction for a small sum of $1350... good thing the guys from "Storage Wars" didn't attend... Yup!
