Hey guys, couple questions...About to order wheels in in an hour or two and was wondering how well 10.5 rears will clear my 3" tips, and if I could still reuse my 275 nitto drag til I can afford something bigger...Thanks!

By the way they're the Black centered deep dish bullits that they have on the Partshopper page on here...Should look pretty sick on my cobra.

I dont know how the offsets compare to the AFS Cobra R's, but on mine, I had to move the right tip over towards that tank just a tad to clear. But that was with the 315's which is what was rubbing. I had 275's on the 10.5's without a problem before that. This was with the stock 2.25 tips as well. So you may have to do a little more in order for them to clear.

Thanks!...The deed is done. Ordered them just now. 17X9 Front and 17X10.5's out back, with the deep dish polished lips and black centers. Can't wait!
