Looks good, I prefer the looks of a 275 on an 8 inch rim, I like a rolled over sidewall...I wouldn't have any fear doing it, just try to avoid potholes..which we all should do anyways <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

Hey man what's wrong with being hispanic--steretyping is bad. </P>


That's what I have --CobraR's with 275/35/18's. It looks bad to the bone, i agree. The lowering kit is a must, but not too low because then you'll be crossing over to the Ricer's world.<IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0"></P>

Damn nice looking car! This thread helped me out on my wheel decision as well.</P>


</P>


Just one question? would a 18x9 wheel with a 285 on the back work?</P>


NO2JUNKIE, can you clarify? Are your Cobra Rs 18x8 or 18x9?</P>

Nope.......if you go higher than 275 then you have to get a 10.5" wheel. 275 is the max, my fenderwells are stuffed with the tires, barely full, but no scrapping. Besides with the 285 you'll have the tire sticking out the Fendwell, thats ugly.
