Default Xmas Gifts for the Cobra?!

...I didn't get xmas gifts for the '03 Cobra or the '05 Mustang GT ....But, I'm going to be ordering my 10.5's with Nitto 315 DR's (with the bolts) from AM in the next few days! ...I'm also going to get some Royal Purple trans fluid & 5w30...

I'm also going to get the Mustang Sequential Taillights for my wife's '05 GT!

...What did you guys get?!

I want to get some MT E/T Streets in a 315 for my 9 inch rims, and some new 10th Anniversary wheels(previous owner ruined the fronts with built up brake dust)
Personally, I'd get a bigger Nitto than a 315 for a 10.5 inch wheel. I have 315's on my 9 inch, and it barely bulges.

RP FTW!!!

315's is the biggest Nitto DR tire you can get with a 17" wheel...do you have a pic of your 315's on a 9" wheel?

Here is one angle, with the 315's on



Rear, can't see the meat completely



Side view



315's on a 10.5 would look narrow. IMO. I'd get a BFG Drag radial or some ET's in a big size.

315's on a 9" wheel ^^^^ don't look all that bad! ...have you tried them at the track? ....I'm really looking to hook-up at the track & I'm not so concerned about the "buldge"....I do have an extra set of 9" sitting around!

Nice Cobra!
