Can u fit 275's in the front on a 95 cobra and do 315's have any rubbing problems. My car is lowered about 1.5 inches all around. Also do u guys have any pics of 17x9 275's and 17x10.5 315's. Any help will be useful. Thanks

Just my 2 cents.
My buddy has a 97 Vert lowered 2" with Saleen 18x10.5 and 295's. 275's on the front.
He couldn't go any wider at all and had to roll the lips inside the fenders

I have a 2 1/4 drop in the front and 2 drop in the back and I'm running 17x9's. front tires are 275/40's and backs are 285/40's - no rubbing whatsoever for me. (I don't know about the 315's)
I have the AFS 10.5 on the rear of my 94 Cobra, not lowered yet, working on it. It looks like it will clear with a mild drop. Here are some pics:
I've got a 97 cobra with afs 10.5's on the rear. You will have to flip the quad shocks if you still have them. Also, roll the inner fender well slightly. It sounds like a PITA but it only takes a few minutes to do. I've also seen some have problems with the tire hitting the exhaust pipe. I have side exhaust, so I don't have that problem. All in all, this job is simple to do, and took about 10 minutes per wheel. (rolling fenderwell, flipping quad shock).
why do you want such a big tire up front that is just way to much extra rotating mass i has 235 17 in front and 315 bfgs in back
this is mine, 315's dr's in back, lowered with eibach sportlines (2in),no problems with them

the side wall on 315/35/17 are exactly the same as 245/45/17 (110.25mm). The side wall on 285/40/17 is actually taller (114mm). The second number is a the height of the side wall (which is a percentage of the width) and the first number is the width of the tire in millimeters. Using a calculator you can figure the height of the side wall.
