Today I got off work early and went and had my 335s mounted on a couple of brand new Deep Dish Bullits, I already had a couple of good rims and tires from my 2003 Mustang GT, so I decided to go ahead with the plan to stick 335 in there. I adjusted the driver's side IRS adjustable arms but still rubs on the aluminum, so I am going to have to do some mods to the aluminum and/or maybe use a couple of spacers, or even modify the Control Arms, well see. But I think they will fit !

Here are some pictures, only the driver's side got adjusted so the pictures are of that side, it still can come out maybe 1/2" out more.


 
Holy crap Sergio that's a lot of tire! What type of IRS is under your Cobra? Is it out of a donor Cobra? What year? There are a couple guys currently running Hoosier 335's DR's on their '03/'04 Cobras and they used 1/2 inch spacers, extended lugs, and ground down the IRS bolt some.

It sure is a lot of rubber!
I have the IRS from the 03 Cobra donor under there, but the cage is not, I used the IRS cage that comes with the FFR kit, it all fits with a couple of Mods, The middle shafts were shortened (exchanged actually) by DSS. due to the fact that I can adjust the FFR Control arms I can space them out about an inch, but I still going to need spacers, I just ordered them and as soon as I get them I'll be posting pictures of how it looks.
The IRS bolt is not an issue here, the issue is that it hits the aluminum panel right in front of the tire. But I think it'll work out in the end.
Another solution is to modify that panel, but I still have about an inch of space under the fender lip
