That's Sean Korb's Pantera. I've cc'd him on this reply, so he can answer any additional 
questions or provide more info. 
 
The rears are Ford Motorsport Cobra R wheels, but the fronts are 16"x8" Chinese repos. He 
got them on closeout from mustangtuning.com. He didn't like how the stock Rs fit on the 
front, and I found something smaller.
  
Most people like their wheels pushed out towards the edge of the fenders, but Sean likes 
them tucked in like they are on the back. It's clear that you could get another inch and a 
half for width, but his tires are only 275 section, and he thinks they'd look funny with 
spacers. They're wider than the tires he had on his single slot Campys, and they hang on 
the car in about the same place. He says they're great on the street, and now he doesn't 
have to worry about hurting his original single slot Campys.

Also, contact "fordgt" in this thread on the PI board about his wheels:

Cheers!
