    Debating if I should sell my 01 Cobra

    I bought the 01 Cobra when I saved up for it my first year teaching because it was my dream car. I've babied it throughout the years and have only put 37K miles on it, since I have had another car to use as my daily driver. Well, the other day, someone left a note on my car saying that...

    Questions about tires not lasting long enough

    Questions about BFG Sport tires not lasting long enough Hi All I'm writing to ask about some tires I bought, BF Goodrich G Force Sport, for all 4 of my wheels at 255/45/17. They are all the same size so that I could rotate them, which I did every 4K miles. However, the tires didn't even...

    Any info or TSB I should know of before I get 30K Maintenance on my 01?

    I'm going to be due for my 30K maintenance, and I'm sure it will be an expensive one. Any tricks i should look for so that I don't get screwed the way Nissan did me on my 15K maintenance. I also thought there was talk about how there was a TSB on the shifter or the transmission? Is that still...

    Are BFG G Force Sports a good choice for tires?

    My BFG KDWS fronts only lasted 12K. Maybe that's considered good, but the stock tires on the 01 Cobra lasted at loeast 17K. I'm running a staggered setup (255 fronts and 275 backs) so I have learned my lesson there. As soon as the rears wear down, I'm replacing them with the same size as the...

    What rims were these?

    I remember there was a company that made these rims that looked like the old AC CObra rims. They had an attachment where you could put the "teeth" on the centercap. I can't find them anymore.

    Need Grill Emblem Opinions - Car Vandalized

    Ok, so my car gets vandalized AGAIN! The first time, someone took the side emblem off my car. Luckily they didn't do any damage, just the emblem. So now my front Cobra Emblem gets ripped out. They just bent the thing up and down until it came out, screws and everything. So now the holes...

    Need your opinions on Rims

    I am wanting to buy a new set of rims for my car and wanted your input. I have been looking at those Deep Dish Bullitts and they look nice. My only reason for hesitating is I don't want the car to wind up looking like a GT. I'd like it to still look like a Cobra. So I've also been looking...

    Polished or Chrome?

    I waas wondering if anyone out there could tell me about the differences and advantages of Chrome and Polished rims? Chrome is always more expensive. I have heard some people who got polished say they wish they got chrome instead. Does chrome look better? I always thought polished looked the...

    How do you buy your rims?

    I'm thinking about buying some rims and wanted to know how others go about doing it. Do you order the wheels from the place that's putting them on? I have found it's sometimes cheaper for me to just order them from websites and have them put on later. Anyone know who's got the best price to...

    Need help finding rims

    I have seen these great looking chrome rims on 2 mustangs around town and I can't find them anywhere on the internet. They look like Torque Thrusts, except they look more sharper, like blades. They also have a point on the centercap. I looks kind of like an arrowhead. Anyhow, I wish I had a...
