OK heres what my wheels look like... ive been told they were just 98 cobras..sweet. i thought they were R's but im trying to find a pair of 17x10 whatever wheels these are and found these... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AFS-...062888608QQcategoryZ43957QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem are these the same wheels? will they match mine?
The wheels on ebay will not match yours. Your wheels have a two stepped lip where as the Cobra R repoductions have a waterfall style of lip/wheel edge. Not the answer you were hoping for but they would not look right with your front wheels.
damn coause a guy on the board has 95 cobras that are 10in wide in the rear and i wanted to get some 98's ARGH
see my only problem with them are i need a FAT tire on the back. im wondering if i just got some 275 DR's if they will hook up just as good as if i went to a 315. I wouldnt mind getting rid of these wheels and tires for just a set of 17x9 and 17x10 DD wheels.
The 98 Cobra wheel is a great looking wheel, I had a set. I looked everywhere to get a 9 or 10 inch rear rim..no luck. I sold them and switched to Bullets. I ran a 275 Nitto Drag Radial on the Cobra rims and was always getting 1.8-1.9 60 foot times. They will hook in that size.
Yes.. no larger...Nittos run a little smaller then most other tires. When you put a 275 nitto against a BF..you will see a big difference.
If your partial to the 98' cobra wheels, i would suggest taking them to a wheel shop and have them widen them. I'm sure with the proper wheel spacer and assuming the wheels shop does a good job, you could make them fit in the wheel well very nicely!
A spacer sits on the studs, then your rim goes over the studs. Rememeber earlier I said that it is not legal to race with hubcentric spacers, these are the kind that go over your studs and then have thier own studs to mount on. I would think the smartest and easiest ting to do, is get one inch spacers, and change your studs to 3 inches. That way you will have a lot of thread for racing. The pic in my avatar is heating up Nittos. Also, BF Goodrich's drag radial hooks great also, just does not have a lot of tread life.
Where are you located? I have a friend who has these in PA. http://www.ymrforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=22524
ok so the spacer just slides over the exsisting bolts. should i go 1.5 or 1 and how much would 3in studs be for 20 of em. 3in..wow kinda long..haha
OK daddy likey alot. anymore pics? what size are those suckers? what kinda wheels? if they are 98 cobras is he willing to seperate the wide ones? or maybe 2 of my wheels and tires plus money for em? ahhhh im excited... :hitit: :dancing6:
