You can get 245's on there... but they are gonna look pretty thin. 03/04 Cobra's come with 275's all the way around and its nice. Although you could could with 295's in the rear with no problem and get a more meaty look to it. Wheels look good by the way. Oh, I've talked with Lethal Performance... and they should be working on a design for the deep dish 03 cobra wheels. Might wanna check into that sometime if they ever come out with a design thats been requested by many.

Those are my personal all time favorites for 99-04s. I may be partial since the Prem I bought came with em stock and now im hooked, but you just cant beat the Muscle Car style of 5 spokes with a design shape like they came off of a Lambo or Porshe. The polish really sets em off and changes the car.

Your wheels are the '99/'01 cobra wheels and are 17x8, not 17x9. I like mine too, but they are not the same size as the 03/04 Cobra wheels.

I think it looks great, I'd go with the Cobra R (the red "R" with the snake comming out of it) center caps, they would look awesome

245's will be a perfect fit on 8" wide rims. The 9"/10.5" is the best for really wide rubber like 275/40's up front and 315/35's on the backs. Polished are nice but do take a lot of time to keep nice. Chrome is the easiest and I am sorry I got my Bullitts in silver centers with a machined edge even though the rears are DD. I would go with Saleen style wheels if I could sell these as I had the Saleen type on my '93 Talon and they are a sharp wheel with the spokes making a 17" wheel look larger. Good Luck with those and they are sharp looking also as I agree a 5 spoke is classic muscle! mark
