Rims rims rims!

Hey everyone I was wondering what everyones opinion is on rims for the fox body tbirds. Right now I have stock and I want a set of rims that will give the car a more aggressive sporty kinda look. I do like the cobra R rims but a lot of people use them. I also like the mustang pony rims. If you have pics of what your thunderbird looks like with some aftermarket rims please please please post them. I want to make an educated desicion before I buy them. Thanks (:

You've got many choices. Most Fox (79-93) Mustang wheels will fit a Fox Thunderbird/Cougar :).
