11" wide Cobra chrome wheel & 335s?

[da28fan]

Doing some mods to get HP up to 600 or so. I want 335s in the back, but does anyone make an 11" wide rear chrome 5-spoke Cobra wheel? I can get 10.5" 5-spoke cobra rear wheels to match the 9" OEM chromes on the front, but heck, can not find an 11" wide chrome wheel for the back to match, in either 17" or 18". I'll get the new IRS bolts, they're only like 10 bucks, and I've heard with the new IRS bolts, no fender mods are needed. Anyone have any good recommendations? Thanks.

I am running 335 r888s on a 10.5, and my brother is running kdws in a 335 on 10.5s

So if you arent stuck on 11s you could try that.

or widen the 10.5s

You can purchase a pair like the front and have them shipped to a company that widens wheels and have them widened to 11" for about $200 a wheel .. that's the only way you'll get a cobra wheel that wide, that I know of anyway

No, I'm not stuck on 11" wheels, just didn't think you could put a 335 on a 10.5" wheel. That's great to know you can! I assume you got the flathead IRS bolts. Any particular offset? So 17 X 10.5" chromes, like what American Muscle has would work with a 335? Would it be too much trouble to ask for a pic? thanks!

I am sra, but I'm pretty sure my brother has the low pro bolts.

Pics probably aren't relevant since I'm not IRS but what the heck

The r888s run big too.

Sonicblur2003 is his name on here. I think lol

That is awesome! Thanks so much for the pics. I put H&R lowering springs on my vert and running QA1 adjustable shocks. Do you ever have any problems with rub? Did some searching for the r888 tires, but only seeing them in 18" so far. I'll keep looking for them in a 17"!

 

[Travis]

I don't have any rub issues but i have a lot of fender gap because I have long tube headers and I can't lower the car anymore.

My brothers is pretty much slammed and he got his fenders rolled. I think the tires may rub here and there but nothing crazy.

Cool. Thanks a bunch. Getting ready to order something!

I would get them in 315/35/17 for the 10.5" wheel. 335s aren't needed for 10.5" wheels and the tire will bulge some, so a 315 will be a better fit. I have 315 Hoosier Drag Radials on my 10.5s and they fit perfect, so I'm sticking with a 315.

This is true, my 335s bulge a bit but still work great. 315s would fit better.

I just got a decent deal on my 335s so I went with it.
