I guy i know just bought a set of OE 03 cobra style rims. I instantly fell in love with them. I plan on converting to 5 lug soon. The 03 cobra rims came factory with 275 tires. Assuming that these won't even fit in the back I just need to know how big can i go in the front and rear without any rubbing issues and still look good.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/O-E-1...QQcmdZViewItem

What are your old rims? I'd be interested in buying them.

245/45/17 in front. those 275's should fit out back no problem.

I have 255/40 all the way around and they are fine. (I have a 1 inch spacer on the back too.) I can not lock the wheels side to side though, due to the Wheels hitting the control arm.

I have 245-40-17's up front and 275-40-17's out back, the front only rubs on full lock only to the right

Each cars is slightly different depending on how the springs have worn over the years, or the aftermarket springs, the 275 in back will fit no problem, up front i wouldn't go any bigger than 240, i have 245's and they rub a little bit with the stock springs, I plan on going 235 when i get new tires.

When I put the 03 Cobra wheels on the Rear; they hit the Quad shock. I think you can flip the Quad shock around and the wheels will fit fine. When I did my 5 lug conversion, I just didn't think about doing that and bought a 1 inch spacer from Maximun Motorsports.

Another thing to look for about tire size.
**Not all tires are the same Physical size. Two tires can say 245/45 but the OVER-ALL width is different between the two!!!

***OEM 03 Cobra wheels will NOT fit on 5 lug conversion done with the Rotor Swap. You will have to grind away Material from either the Wheel or the Rotor. Other wise the wheel will not fit!!!
