I like those wheels for getting clearance for 14" brake kits.

This company sells studs and spacers that make it safe and reliable.

Wow, wouldn't have guessed so many wouldn't like it.

While it wouldn't necessarily be my first choice, I think lowering the car a bit more in combination with those wheels and less sidewall, it would look much better.

I agree with the ... "those tires are too tall" comments.

If you use the 2000 Cobra R tire sizes it will look, handle, accelerate and brake better, than with those tall boys.

Less rotating mass in a smaller diameter for the win!
