thats what my car has and the only time it rubbed is if i turned the steering wheel all the way so i just put rack limiters on so it wont do it anymore.

how does the car handle? i want to order cobra's this weekend but idk if i sould buy the 17x9's and buy a set of 17x8s for the front

90lxstang

its hard to tell if it affected the handling because before i bought them i was sliding around on bald tires that were on it when i bought the car. the turning radius is horrible because of the rack limiters which makes some u turns a pain.

to me it is worth it. i am happy with the wheels on my car.

ok kool yea the picture in your sig looks nice im just gonna order them then for 465 shipped new i cant go wrong for 4 17x9's i guess if iw as gonna do the 17x8's upfront its like 165 per rim

90lxstang

i have seen a few 5.0s with them and i think they look killer

Im runnen 17x9 um front and yea they rub a bit like stated above when you turn, depending on how and where you drive, you can just take out the inner fenderwells

I've been told the ideal setup would be 17x8 rim with a 245/45 tire up front is just perfect.
