The originals are yes. The originals are a four lug 17x7 wheel. Nearly impossible to replace a whole set now. Occasionally a set will pop up on ebay and will easily be $3-4k for a set.
There is a ton of aftermarket Cobra replicas out there but they have an offset for a regular foxbody rather than the Cobra. The wheels are on the Cobra are pushed out further to the corners of the car with longer axles for better handling. If you put the aftermarket ones on a Cobra they will stick out about an inch.
It always seemed silly to go to the trouble of pushing the wheels out to the corners to improve handling but then put the car on a narrower wheel. LOL, but that's 90's tech for you.
