after seeing the pics makes my choices a bit harder, i saw some fr 500's on a car and didnt like them but they look ok on that cobra, im probly going to stay away from the 18's nitto doesnt make a 315 tire for 18's 305 is close but i want to keep with the 315's plus i might want to try a diffrent tire some day and 17's are more readily available. need more opinions after mitch posted up some pics what do you guys think? cobra replics fr 500's or black chrome replicas (think the black chrome would be better then solid black)

yea dude they make black chrome fr 500's and saleen wheels but they dont have saleen wheels in 17 on wheel replicas

http://www.wheelreplicas.com/FR500.html

black chrome 17" Fr 500's would be sick.

also if the car is lowered a 17in wheel will look a bit bigger that at least how it seemed when i lowered mine

both my cars already have a 10.5 wide with nitto 315's on them, wierd i bought a car that has matching wheels to my sn95 :S but i dont like the looks of the torque thrusts on the cobra

not a fan of the saleen wheels anyways not sure why but id prefer the 03 cobra replicas over the saleens, how ever the fr500's look alright just need to decide between the 2

Fr 500s black chrome



cobras black chrome
