Moonlight blue with chrome rims?

Brian95SVT · Feb 26, 2008

yeah that's what i was sayin

ok so if i get the 9' rims all the way around...
what tire sizes should i run?

255x40x17 up front and
305x35x17 in rear?

realitygt · Feb 26, 2008

the smallest size on a 9 inch is 275 i believe

imo i would just do 275 or higher all the way around, depending on clearance, so you can still rotate the tires and what not :dunno:

also if you get a 9 inch rim your rims will hit your control arms when you turn your wheel all the way unless you get 03 cobra a arms from frpp

the site says recommended 255 that's why i said it.
on my setup i have 275s all the way around on a 9' 95 cobra r so...
well i think it's a 9 inch.... could be wrong.

but 275s were nice
do they sell nitto 555rs in 275?
i think i've seen them.

i want Nitto 555s up front and Nitto 555Rs in the rear

I run 245's on my front 03's. 275's will pull your call over the road with every groove in the road.

yeah i have 275s all the way around right now...

realitygt · Feb 26, 2008

Brian95SVT · Feb 26, 2008

yeah... i think a buddy of mine has 245s up front Nitto 555s and 275s in the rear Nitto 555Rs... oh a 9' rim
i was gunna buy them for 500 dollars they don't fit with his new k-member sway and some other stuff he did... he said it might be close... if so then he will sell them to me which i want

275's are what came on them form the factory. I went absolutely smallest I possibly could cause i got titred of it pulling all over the place.

I've got 245's up front on mine now, and 275's out back... Johnsons Mustang and truck here in Virginia(Chesapeake) used to sell Ford rims, they HAD a set of 10.5 Satin '03 Cobra rims, haven't been there since i came home from deployment, and that was almost a year ago, so it's been quite awhile...
I'm waiting for wheel replica to finish production of there DD '03 Cobra rims... i'm saving for that :banana: they told me they would email me as soon as they got the final pricing ready for them.

man im with you on that one... i had 255's up front on my 9" saleens and they pulled me everywhere.. i put 245's and it was night and day. still pulls you off the road sometimes though. scary, i hate that feeling.

im running 245 up front on 18x9" saleens and 285s out back on 18x10" saleens :thumb:

realitygt · Feb 26, 2008

I have 255/40's all around and i know the feeling your talking about with it pulling you and it's pretty scary but it only happens to me when the road surfaces are uneveven like one is 1/2 inch higher than another
