I have an 02 gt convertible with the rear quad shocks. I was thinking of going with a set of chrome 03 cobra wheels. they are 17x10.5 w/ 315-35-17 tires in the rear. I would really like to buy these but I don't want to have to use a spacer. If these won't fit because of the quad shock what is the largest rim and tire that I can go with. thanks for your help.

They should fit, but it all depends on how much the tires hang off of the rim, and if the backspacing is dead on. On my last 01 GT, I had 315 Sumitomos on 10.5" Black Bullitts, and they didn't rub, and I now have 315 BFG DR's that hang off of the rim a little bit on my 03 Cobra DD wheels on my new 02 GT, and I don't rub either. If you happen to rub with them, you can turn the quad shock upside down, so the smaller side is up. That gives alot more room, or you could invest in some nice aftermarket lower control arms, which eliminate the need for the quads altogether. Either way, those wheels are sweet, and you should get them!
