these are machined aluminum, its pretty much raw metal with a clear coat and grey paint on the insides of the rim.

When I bought my '03 Cobra it had chrome Cobra R wheels on it. I am coming up needing to replace the tires and I am not sure what my maximum would be. It currently has 315/35R/17 GForce DR's -- and I am considering Vredestein Sessantas or sticking with a new set of BF Goodrich's.

Any advice on what size I can go up to, if at all?

depends on the width of the rim really... its most likly a 10.5 rear with a 9" front. and i dont think you can run anything wider than a 315 on the rear without wheel spacers, theres a guy on here running 335's but his whole rear is custom and the wheel was widened to 11"..

so to answer your question.. 275's up front, 315's out back.

I just talked to AFS the other day about the 03 cobra replicas in machined finish and anthrasite paint in 10.5. They have them in 17x10.5 for $424 a pair and 18x10.5 for $444 a pair. Since I wont be rotating my tires gonna go with the 18x10.5in back and stock 17x9 in front. That should look sweet, anyone with the same type of setup? Pics maybe?

they have some in-stock. too expensive for two wheels around 460$. I would rather get the american muscle black 03 wheel set with of course 10.5 out back. which would run around the same price.
