Well I finally, finally, FINALLY got wheels for my Cobra after sitting on jack stands for 2 years. I sold the old 18's to help fund my new house. I bought Weld Alumastar 2.0's in 17 inch. I only have this pic taken from an iphone so far but once I get the longer wheel studs in and the brakes repainted I'll throw the wheels back on and take better pics. These pics don't do the car or the wheels justice!

Taken in 2009 with the 18x8.5, 18x9.5 Stern wheels. (back when I wanted to power slide every corner)




And now when I want to hang the tires!

Looks tough, makes me wonder if you will hook up enough with a 17 tire though.

Well Mickey Thompson's are arguably the best drag radial out there, but if they aren't enough at the track I have a pair of 15" Prostars with 27x10.5 ET Streets I will use.

And this is to Fire 4 Effect your avatar is a perfect 10!

Thanks guys. I'm really happy with how it looks. I'm in process of raising the rear a 1/2" to give it a slight rake to go along with the big n littles. Maybe the rain will stop here in Ohio one day so I can drive it!

Thanks. Here's a picture from the other night using my phone.
