Since I cancelled my Black FR500 order because they will be producing 18x10 later on this year, I bought a set of 17x10.5 Chrome 03 Cobra wheels and Nitto 315/35/17 DR. When my 18x10 FR500 in black are made I will be selling my 17x9 (4) and then the 17 x10.5. I have a verbal commitment for the 17x9 and then I will sell my 17x10.5.

I need some pics of the 17x10.5 with the niitos on some cobras. What spcaer do I need since the wheels are too far in.

I have SVT chrome 17x 10.5's with 315's in the back and I got Bullitt wheel extensions and love them the stance looks great the car is alot!!! more secure and stable on the curves and no body role any more and a lot less body twist on hard off the line. I don't have pictures yet. Mine installed easy no bolt grinding which I like alot I want grind or drill my car to put aftermarket part on it's a pet pee with me I want to keep my car as stock as I can. Heres a place to start looking at extension look at all the sell sights they have here on this sight.

Go with the BFG's much wider than a Nitto of the same size and Hook is night and day difference!

Discount tire now has the Nitto 315's. Do I go with the original nitto/10.5 package or just with the BFG/10.5. Looks like BFG is going to the new style thread design on the 315/35/17 after August.

DILEMA!!!!!!!!! Give me your opinion guys. I know I can go with the nitto on the 17x9 how do they look on the 10.5.

I have the Nitto 315's on the stock wheel. I think they look best on the stock wheel. I have seen them on the AFS 17X10.5 and I think they are too narrow for a 10.5 inch wheel. You have seen for yourself how narrow the Nitto 315's are compared to other brands. I think they are as wide as a BFG 285 series. Stay with the stock wheels until you get the 18 inchers. I have a white Cobra and am also thinking about black wheels. That would be something different.

You won't need any spacers with the Nitto's on the stock wheel. You may/may not need spacers with the Nitto's on the 17X10.5.

Decisions? Decisions? What would we do without our Cobra's.

Happy wheel hunting.

Later Dude,

Chong
