Does anyone know if the aftermarket 95 Cobra R rims are any different than the Ford ones? Are the contours and everything the same? Would you be able to tell a difference from the front to back wheel? Will the Ford Cobra R centercaps fit?

97riocobra2 said:The Ford ones have two different types. M-1007-R50 has U shaped spokes and M-1007-R58 has the V shaped spokes. However the chrome R's M-1007-C58 only are the V shaped. The V shaped M-1007-R58 and M-1007-C58 look better than the U shaped. I'm sure the aftermarket have the same type differences.

Im pretty sure I have the orignal Ford M-1007-C58 Chrome R's. The cheapest I could find a new one is $240 from speedconcepts.NET
