    None of them look as good as the stockers.

        If it were mine I would stay with the stock ones. The Turbo's had their own wheels back then, one of the things that set them apart.

            In that case I would go with number 3.

                  I thought the Shelby GT500's looked pretty good.

                    I like the GT500. Did you get an answer on the clearance question?

                      yea, i went to Les Schwab and talked to someone there. He said 17x9" would fit perfectly. They will fill up the wheel wells a bit more which definitely isnt a bad thing.

                        If you put the real 03 Cobra satin wheels on make sure you go with correct size tire for those big rims. They also have a bit more offset than I think the original turbo wheels had so front end alignment settings might be out the window.

                        I put some of those on my 03 GT and you would not believe how much we had to change the settings to get it to drive correctly.

                          the offset on the originals is .88, while the new rims are .71" i believe

                              I agree. The best looking wheels IMHO, are the Neiman Marcus wheels followed by the T-Bird Premium wheels, a distant second.
