I believe thats all the bigger will go one that size rim. If you get some 17x10.5" rims, than you can go up to 315/35/17.

255/45/17 would look sweet. A 275/40/17 will fit but it will balloon a little.

on STOCK COBRA tires you can do 275/40-17, as the stock rim is a 17x9.... atleast on the newer cobras.

The SN95 Cobras are 17x8s and came with 245/45/17 standard and optional 275/45/17. So i'd say 275 for sure 285 MAYBE
