Got tired of the old Cobra Rs - had them since 1 month after I bought the 01 (my first mod) so I decided it was well past time for them to be replaced with something that has a little more bling, deep dish, 18", and with some better grip out back. After doing a lot of searching and trying to make up my mind whether I wanted chrome again - or change to a black center - I opted for the Ruff Racing 278 chromies with BFG G-Force KDW up front (245/35/18), and the BFG Drag Radials out back (295/35/18). I'm pretty happy with the result :)

Such a beautiful day - love this California weather :thumbsup:

I wish the spokes flared out instead of in.

Thanks - I do plan on removing that when I get a new bumper cover next year. Since Ill be moving in August of this year... it will be time to do some further tweaks to the car's looks after that. Right now, my house has this horrendously large bump on the entry that will destroy any low-clearance bumpers (can't angle it in with the stick axel in back - I'm lowered and my fenders WILL grap the tires). Soon that won't be a problem and I can run a 03 front. :)

i like the design... if they were billet, too shiney for me.
The Hyperblack or Jet Black rims would probably be a viable option for you then. I almost went that route - but with so much chrome in the engine bay I decided to just keep going with the theme (for lack of a better reason) :rolling:
