i can see a 275 tire being a little wide for the front with that low of a drop. I think your car looks great with them, glad you got the rubbing issue worked out.

Yea the tires are wider than the rim.. I bought all 4 of them for like $50 bucks, so I cant complain.

Thanks for the compliments guys. It handles a lot better now also. I'll have my Cobra R's this week and I'll wash everyhting andn take some better pics.


TIMES! Where you been?

I have a 92lx coupe with eibach lowering springs....lowered it 1.5". Looks nice and handles great, I to am looking to get some 17" Cobra R's. I seen on ebay they have a set 17x8 in front and 17x9's in back. I'm thinking the 8's will be enough clearance for front tire. I will just have to get a lower profile tire like 40 if it touches top of fender.
