where to get Halibrand Cobra IIIs?

These are the wheels I'm trying to hunt down. I'm not looking for the real things of course, because I want to save money by going with knock offs. I've already looked on ebay, checked the usual Mustang part vendors and did a google search.

If anyone knows where to look, let me know.

Sweet, I was waiting for you to chime in.
So are they for sale? I'd buy'em from you, but by the time I have the money saved up you probably would have sold'em already lol.
Where did you get yours from? And how much drop did the stangsuspension springs give you?

They remind me of the standard V6 wheels from 2005.

I've never advertised them for sale. I got them from mr.bodykit.com. The StangSuspension springs dropped it 1.75" up front and 1.5" in the rear. They are also off of the car. I did a full suspension swap last Friday. Removed were factory shocks/struts, StangSuspension springs and both front and rear factory sway bars. They were replaced with FRPP damper kit, FRPP K springs and Steeda front and rear sway bars. What a night and day difference! The ride is now much more smooth and the little bit of corners I've gone around, it handles a lot better!

Is the picture of your car that you posted above with the k springs or the stangsuspension ones?
I'm glad you like'em btw. I just bought a set but still haven't installed'em yet.

That pic is with the StangSuspension springs.
Here is one with the K springs:

I didn't do any before and after measurements, but it seems the K springs dropped it more in the back. They are advertised at 1.5" front and rear. Still no signs of tire rub!

Thanks for the tip.
But unfortunately for me it looks like they no longer carry them. Looks like I'll just go with FR500s. Oh well.
