hi all - so i purchased a new project and pretty pumped on getting started. It is a stock 94 Cobra. I picked up some wheels for it and having some trouble trying to figure out tire brand and size. The wheels are from a stock 2007 Shelby size 18s. I want to make this a daily driver but still want some sticky tires. I owned the nitto nt555 previously on my fox body but went through them pretty quickly. Anyways does anyone know what is the biggest comfortable size I could go with in tires on the 95?

Stock tire size for a 1994 Cobra is 255/45/17.

Pretty sure you could easily get a 275 out back. Question is what is the width on the Shelby wheels?

Yes, you need spacers as they have a deeper offset.

Thanks, I am going up to 18x9.5 wheels.

Any idea what size spacers would be needed?
