Got my new tire's on yesterday, I also got 2 17x10.5 rims for the rear.Front's are 275/40/17 Rear's are 315/35/17 goodyear gs-d3.
I shaved the head on the IRS bolt's a little just to be sure there were no issues.
That's also the sambandit H E guard I just put on.:thumbsup:

Thanks for all the compliments guys.

DSG03Snake I got all the tire's from discount tire.They were saying it was the rear's that were hard to find the front's they had in stock in Arizona only took a few days to get them.I also found them at treadepot.com last week when i was looking.

That looks sweet, but I need some specifics on that wheel/tire setup:

1. Are you running spacers?
2. What brand of wheels are the 10.5s, and what's their offset/backspace?
3. Is your car lowered?

If those 10.5s have the same backspacing as AFS wheels...and you aren't lowered...and you aren't using spacers...and those tires clear the IRS frame at normal ride height...you must have some sort of factory freak Cobra!!! If you try and fit that setup on 99.9% of stock height Cobras, there's no way it'll work without spacers (at least 3/8") and the bolt head mod. :shrug:
