Hey guys I'm wanting to order a new set of the black Weld RT-S wheels for my '95 Cobra and I'm pretty sure I want to do a 15x10" with 6.5" in the rear and a 17" up front but I'm not sure what width, BS, or pad height to get?!?!?

What pad height do I need to clear the Cobra brakes? I'm assuming a medium pad height will work.

It seems like Jegs has the largest selection I could find, the sizes for 17's start at 4 1/2" width (2.2" BS), to 5 1/2" (3.3" BS) and 6 1/2" (4.8" BS). I'm leaning towards maybe the 5 1/2" just so it's a little bit wider to give me SOME stability for turns, but I'm not real sure if that's the proper backspace I need.



Let me know if there's another size I should be considering or a better place to buy, the rears seem decently priced but the fronts are quite a bit more! Here's a link to Jegs showing their sizing and what I'm looking at...thanks! :beer:
