Not at all. I get the 5.0 magazine and I saw some nice rims...think they are the cobra r's? 93 i think? They look sexy. I would love wide ass tires too...what size would look awesome? 17x9? same for front and back? I am also worried once i get them I wont know how to put them on.... i wanna get a combo tire/wheel package...people do that right?
get exactly what I posted in #30 on page 2. I just dont know which tires you need I am thinking 255/40R17 for the front and 285/40R17 for the rear. they are easy to install on car once tires are mounted to rims. usually companies choose tires that they get for cheap or whatever for the wheel + tires packages.

I dont feel like reading all these posts, but Ill give you my input 
Convert to 5 lug, upgrade the brakes if you can afford it. Once your converted to 5 lug, your rim choices are virtually limitless.
H pipe for sound, X for performance. But personally - A fat girl that just ate a bowl of beans farting > X pipe on a 5.0.
I would also go 17x9. I dont think you can much over 255 in the rear of a Fox without rolling the fenders. And a 17x10 would look bad on a 255 tire.

EDIT** The 93 Cobra R rims were black with a polished lip. Is that what you are talking about, or did they look like this?
