After much debate, I finally bit the bullet and picked up a set of OEM chrome 04 Cobra rims with 275/40/17's all around. Thanks for all of the help with the decision on my wheels, let me know what you guys think.
Finally got some new wheels on my 96 Mystic

I'm planning on getting a set of 17x10.5's in the future to use as a drag wheel setup with some good drag radials. The car is my daily driver, and the 315's are pretty expensive so I decided I'd stick with the 17x9's. I really wanted 18 inch Saleens, but same thing, being a dd and tires are outrageous, so I settled for the Cobras. While not my favorite wheel setup, I really think it looks much better than the stockers (which were pretty beat up after 130k miles of use). Thanks everyone!

Chrome, She can see herself In the shiny grill and the
Wire wheels of a red Chevelle with four on the floor and the top down
Chrome, zippin' by on an Electra Glide
With dual tail pipes doin' 105 in the broad daylight
On a two-lane headin' outta town
Forget Pink and purple paisleys
little mellow-yellow daisies
Ain't no pot of gold in her rainbow
Her favorite color is ..Chrome
Chrome, get her leg up high
on the bumper of my big black Mack truck
With a smoke stack pointed towards the sky
And mud flaps, you know the kind
Chrome,I said hey little girl you sure look nice
Do you wanna ride, I won't bite, she climbs inside
Says hell no, I want to drive
Forget Pink and purple paisleys
little mellow-yellow daisies
Ain't no pot of gold in her rainbow
Her favorite color is ..Chrome
It's chrome alright Shiny,nice polished
Chrome, Chrome
Forget Pink and purple paisleys
little mellow-yellow daisies
Ain't no pot of gold in her rainbow
Her favorite color is ..Chrome
Her favorite color is...chrome
That girl is all about chrome
She sure loves chrome
I am so sorry I had to lol.

To hell with your Mustang, I want to see your HOG!
Thanks! I really searched through tons of wheels, never even considered the 03 Cobras. Several local guys kept saying I should check into them. I found a pic of a Mystic with satin ones, hated it. Then I saw the very first one with chrome 03's, and I fell in love. I'm really proud of where the car is. Since last March I had the bumpers and hood repainted (clear coat peeling on the bumpers, rock chips on the hood), removed the front license plate bracket, removed billet grille, shorty antenna, and added smoked head/fog lights. I'm finally pleased with the outside, now I can move on to building up the suspension (subframes, LCA's, etc) and some engine mods (starting with longtubes and a tune). Here's a before pic, I think it looks 100x better.
