Default Rim size???

I figured I would ask it here because it relates to 99+ stangs.

Will 17x9 '03 Cobra rims fit on my '00 GT? On all four corners? Figured I would have to run 255/40/17 tire size, correct?

You can fit bigger than 275's, but thats the recommended size (275/40/17) and I wouldnt go smaller than 255 in the front myself

^^^ Thanks Guys! ^^^
<MD? what about keep'n the front 245/45 and the back 275/40. That way the measure out to 25.7in's. 255/40's are about 3/4in smaller, but wider? So what was your reasoning behind the 255/40's?

Now give me your thoughts? Think Black GT with Mach I chin thingy

17x8 FRPP Black Bullitt's


17x9 '03 Cobra's


17x8 '99 Cobra's

With a 9" rim you can go up to 315's. I would go with the deep dish bullitts if I were you. Cobra rims are nice but they dont look right on a GT thats not dressed like a Cobra.
