Would these work on my 97 cobra or are they too big. If they would work would they look good with my stock 245/45/17 on the front?

Depends what wheel youre using. What brand of tire are you interested in? I run that size out back with a 10.5" wide wheel, no problems since I dont have the quad shocks

Yeah, I was going with a 10.5 wheel, on some Nitto NT555R or Sumitomo HTR Z tires

Cool

I have 315/35R17 Nitto 555 on 10.5 in wide rim on my 94 i had to remove the quad shocks and bang out a little bit of the inner fenderwell in the rear but they fit fine and look awesome with my 255/40R17 up front

Do yourself a favor(and me) dont get the Sumitomos. Have you ever seen a kid on a bigwheel try and get traction?

I used to run 315 sumitomos, and recently switches to 315 nitto dr's. The difference is so huge it's not even funny!

Even if you want just decent traction, don't get the sumitomos.
