On ebay there are lots of mustang cobra rims that bolt on to the S13. Is there anyone with these rims on their S13. If they will clear everything then I am thinking about purchasing them

This is the info on them.

New 17" Polished Cobra R replica wheels
New Cobra center caps
Wheel size 17 X 9
Offset 20 mm
Bolt pattern 4 lug, 4.25
Tires new Kumho 255 40 17 Ecsta 711
Treadwear 340
Traction AA
Temperature A
Tires are mounted but not balanced

Less then a grand all together and they come with Tires

Im gonna be using RS*R race springs and i dont know what shocks yet. The Q45 cross drilled rotors would look pretty mean through these.

4 lug, 4.25 is your problem there, not happening, you need a 4 x 4.5 (114.3)

+30? Hmm i thought they were +20 (ebay ones are)
Also note the 5lug in that pic.
As for the 4 luggers, you are SOL mustangs are 4x4.25 so it won't work

actually it sounds like the dudes spare was from another car are you sure that spare fit your mustang? cuz if it fit your nissan it would be the wrong size for your mustang

look on memeber rides under AceInHole he has cobra rims. but his are painted black and look rather nice on his setup.

so the cliffs notes are:

5 lug mustang rims fit 5 lug nissans.

4 lug mustang rims WILL NOT fit 4 lug nissans.

once again you need to go 5 lug.

the end.

some late 90 early 2000 mustange wheels come in 4 lug, well rather the replica ones are made in 4x114.3, search on ebay and you will find them.

well i have a bright i idea why dosent someone use math and see if
4.25 is the same thing as 4x114.3 and since i dont know how to do that, you can if you feel like.

4.25*25.4=107.95
4.5*25.4=114.3

oem 4 lug mustang wheels are 4.25", replicas are a different story altogether.
