Nice rims 275/40/17's in the front would be great for your fronts. What brand are your 315's? I run 275's all the way around and was thinking of 315's on my next pair of tires for the rear.

I also got the 03 Cobra replicas and could'nt be happier with them. The only downfall i see is the weight of them...gotta be the heaviest rims iv'e used. I think it affects perfomance slightly...but not enought to worry about. What center caps do you have...i could'nt quite make out in the pix. I still got American Muscle caps but thinking on getting the SVT's.

I think the new rims look great! Good price on the tires too... nice find! Tire Rack is the way to go when you need new tires- I always buy from them.

the center caps that came with the rims have zr on them. i am going to go with the svt center caps when i put my cobra body kit on. After that i am going to drop a 2003 cobra engine in my car. So if anybody knows where a wrecked 2003 cobra is and they are wanting to sell the whole car let me know.

That's an awesome set up!

You might even consider like a 265/35 up front to really work on the staggered look with the 315s out back.

Fobra - Sumis are awesome tires. I have them on my 96GT and have VERY happy with the price and the performance.
