[QUOTE="Sweet '96 Cobra, post: 10543469, member: 70857"] Well I finally decided on a set of rear tires for the Cobra. I was looking for a tire that could get me some great dry traction and incase of rain, some wet traction. This can be very difficult to find in a street tire, some go with drag radials for street driving but after one drive in the rain with my M/T ET Street drag radials, that was enough for me to say never again! Another downfall with drag radials are that they are not designed for their handling capabilities. So after reading all of the above you can see I had my work cut out for me finding a set of rear tires that get great traction in the dry, decent wet, handle great oh and lets not forget look great! So after reading and doing lots of careful research I settled on the Toyo Proxes R888 in 315/35/18 and ordered up a set. They are a DOT approved road racing and autocross tire that a lot of other Guys have on their Cobra's, Vette's and GT500's and all have reported great traction with them on the street and at the track esspecially. Below you'll find a few pics I snapped earlier today to share.
