I bought new wheels 18" X 9" chrome cobra's

pwcracer · Aug 20, 2004

Now I am trying to figure out what tire size would fit and work well with these wheels. Does anyone have same or similar wheels on their car, and what size tires did you go with? I hope I don't have any clearance issues.

I should have looked at signatures, Squall has this setup looks like
Saleen 18 x 9 Chromes with Falken 245/40/18s

hey how much did you pick those up for?? i was gonna get the chrome mach 1's (since everybody and their grand ma-ma's have cobra R's) but i do like the R's in 18" chrome.,

I saw a set of those on a V-6 Mustang the other day... I dunno if they were cheap knock offs or what but they looked like ass. So be careful about which ones you choose ok?

hehe...that car is up on stilts i think . looks god tho

I was looking at a car with 245's on 9" wheels today and it's too narrow of a tire for the wheel. This car also had 275 on 9's in the back. They looked good!!!! I'd do 275 all 4 corners if it were me.

EDIT: Those were 17's. In 18" size you'd be doing 285/40ZR17.

i think the biggest u can go is 285 on a 9 inch rim, i plan on gettin them soon, they look so sick from the back!! but i would get 285's in the rear and 255's or 265's up front

I have 18x8 fronts with 245/40s and 18x9 rear with 275/35s...No issues with rubbing or the like..

deadly97snake · Aug 21, 2004

I have 265/35/18 all around with no issues what so ever. My car is also droped 1.5"

Rootus · Aug 21, 2004

I've got 275/40/17's all around (stock 03 Cobra setup) and I get a little rubbing up front near lock. The rears could stand a much wider tire, though.

Kdizzite · Aug 21, 2004

I have 295/30/18 on a 9 inch wide rim... and 94SC50 has 315's on his.

On my Fronts I'm running Nitto 255 555's and they rub a bit when you get close to full lock, but it's on a 9" rim at the front and the the tires fit it great, doesn't buldge or strech.
