I have 93 Cobra 4 lug rims and they are 8.5, not 7.5 inches wide. They are OEM, not aftermarket.

Wicked and mystic are both be right. The cobra rear is 10.07" and the 4 click fronts are 10.07". The coby fronts should be 10.84" like you are suspecting. 4 lug. Better phone slap whoever you got them from. peace.

Stav, you are absolutely correct. i dunno why I have been thinking my rims were 8.5. That would explain why the tire guy looked at me so funny when I had him mount 275/40/17 drag radials. That would also explain why the sidewall curves so much. I guess I was thinking the aftermarket rims were the same size as the oem, just a different offset.
