Does anyone know where I can get some 17" cobra
rims that would fit a Contour SVT. Also I do not want Focus SVT rims either.

Aren't the Cobra wheels 5 bolt design? vs the
contour 4 bolt design?

I see an older Cobra every day with 4 bolt pattern. Very nice looking rims. I think I may have to ask him where he got them. They would look soooooo sweeeeet on the SVTC.

Just because it has four lugs it does not mean they will fit. The mustang has a different offset then we do. Plus it is RWD and that makes a big difference in wheel choices.. even if it has 4 lugs.

JMSVT, you are probably referring to the 17' Superior Scoundrels that are not made anymore. They are also called Cobra R's, or Cobra looka-likes. To check look in my yahoo picture album (In my sig), in the SVT folder, and at the last two photos.

More Superior Scoundrels on my '99 SE. It now sits lower on Roush springs, but you'll get the jist. Could be for sale if anyone really wanted them... with 235/40/17's...

As mentioned, the older Mustangs do have 4 X 108 bolt pattern, but they use 20mm-ish offset where we need 38-49 depending on width of the wheel. The Mustang rims would make 195's rub on our cars.
