Ed has those wheels on his '87, but he hasn't been around in ages. I can't even find a photo of his car anywhere.
EDIT: Found a photo from the deep archives.

I don't care what car pics you find, they're ugly. Just because they may be cheap, or free, doesn't mean they are good looking.

I just wanted something that was an OE wheel, and NOT a Cobra R. Those to me are way too overdone. Welds, draglites and centerlines aren't even an option. Only reason I'd considered these are that they have near-new tires...but now dude is saying he's keeping the tires and wanting 200 for the wheels. Eff that.
I do like the looks of the '94-'95 Cobra wheel on a Fox Bird...Chuck's car stands out with them.
The search continues....

Cobra R wheels are used a lot, BUT, they're not ugly.

I wish they made a copy in 4 lug. I would get a set for the T-bird in a minute.

Those are arguably one of the best looks for a Fox Tbird. Sorry to the Cobra R fans...but they're too overdone for my taste. When you see 25-30 Mustangs a week, and all but maybe one or 2 have them, it jades pretty fast.
Now the ones Paul posted....
That's what I'm talkin' about!

+1 Always like them. Wonder how hard it would be to stuff in a motor and trans from a new EVO.
I think those wheels WOULD look good on a catbird.

I look at those on the COugar in the pic, and no mater how I look at them, they just don't fit on these cars (visually).

I like the Pony's on our cars. But I like the Cobra R's too. I actually bought a set over the winter for mine. My current wheels have been on it since 1992! I guess it's finally time to update it a little.
