[QUOTE="DeadStang, post: 14276817, member: 158240"] I've been doing a lot of tire thread reading and there is a lot of talk about wider tires and switching to 18" wheels, etc. I'm old school, tho, and I like the taller sidewall look rather than the rubber band look I think my car has. My Cobra has the stock 17" wheels and the original tires, but I just blew one out tonight on the highway and am now needing to buy a set. Can I put a taller tire on the original wheels w/o rubbing when I turn sharply or go over bumps in the road (car has no suspension mods)? Can I do different sizes front and rear to get taller and fatter in the back to get the raked look (yes, I grew up in the 1970s)? I am a newbie and know I have dumb questions--sorry! [/QUOTE]
