What are your other options? If your choices are "buy wheels" or "not buy wheels", then I vote for take the plunge. Duh!

I favor the Cobra Rs.
This link will explain what I did.

Cobra Rs come in a multitude of offsets so you have to be careful.

I'd do it they look great on these cars, just make sure you get the right offset like TCx2 said

I wanted a set of R's for the longest time, I just didn't want to buy a set of 4 bolt ones. After doing the 5 lug swap I originally had a set of 94 cobra wheels on it,which I really liked those.
However I wanted to go 17x9 vs. 17x8. While searching and waiting for a deal on some cobra R's I found these Steeda Ultralights which I really like.
