    Opinions on this wheel let me know what you think

    Hey guys my cobra has the bullitt style wheels 17" black with polished lip nothing wrong with them but I am just not in love with them. So I came across these.... They have a similar look to the knock off style wheels but a good bit cheaper at around 800 for the set plus tires. They still have the old school look but with a bigger wheel I think it would look nice and help fill the wheel well. I like the rough finished center and the polished lip. I would consider 18 or 19" wheels. I wanted something a little flashy but not too ghetto at the same time. Let me know what you think. They are US mag u111

    I think they would look very good. Personally I wouldn't go any larger than 17" to avoid the wagon wheel look. Gotta have some tire there to look right. I'm not a huge fan of later model style wheels on Cobras but these would look very updated retro and look good I think.

    I would stay with period style wheels if I was to change. Cragar SS Mags or American Racing Torq Thrust style wheels.

    I love the smell of 100 octane in the morning.

    I like the look - modern, but retro...

    I like these. A bit like the FR500 wheels, but slightly different.

    Great looking wheel but unfortunately not available in sizes or backspacing that will work with our cars...

    Ahh figures they wont fit the car I wish they would offer some more options because I really like the look and the price is cheap about 7-800 for a set of 4...
