Hey guys. What are most people running for big and littles on cobra brake equipped cars. I have cobra brakes front and rear and don't want to ditch the bigger brakes. Personally I want to run 15's all the way around if I can.

I run these bad boys on the back of my car, and they clear the rear brakes, which are the same as cobra ones. In order to clear MOST 15" rims though, I believe it's the banjo bolt has to be trimmed a little bit. These ones clear by millimeters lol. As for skinnies up front, you would need a 17" rim or a 15" with big ass spacers, like an inch and a 1/4 I think, but don't quote me on that.

Ive got billet specialties. As far as I know they will clear cobra brakes with a 1 inch spacer up front.

With a 1 inch spacer they will...which you pretty much need for them to sit right anyway.

Even with just GT brakes I needed to run 3/4" spacers to clear my 15" fronts so 1" isn't that bad

FYI - I have a set of extended length Moroso lugs that fit the front of the Mustang that I will sell cheap, one set new in pkg then other taken out to test fit then taken right back off again

You dont need the extended lugs when you have a 1 inch spacer since they dont even make them that big without the studs built into them.

weld racing 15x3.75 will clear with a 1" spacer. I know from personal experience that 15x8x4.5bs weld racing pro stars clear the cobra rears, so do 15x8x5.5bs Summit Racing Fast Five wheels.

I have an SSBC Front brake kit and am hoping that 15's will clear that. I have a 1/2 spacer on the front now but not sure if that will be enough to clear a 15" drag wheel on the front. If not should it clear with a 3/4 spacer?
