I actually found them on Craigslist. The listing said they were 17x9's but in looking at the pics I saw that with the tire sizes they had to be 18x9 and 18x10. I got them for a steal too.

Interested in swapping those anthricites for chrome fr's?

Nice buy! Those will look on there! Does it look like the rear wheels have a different offset than the front? And why don't you have them on yet? Haha

Thanks! Work has been absolutely chaotic these past few weeks so I haven't been able to buy new front tires and swap over the old rear KDWS's. I'm not sure about the offset being different but I'll be sure to check when I put them on. :thumbsup:

The Cobra is looking great man!! Hope all is well with you (and Aaron too)!
Thanks bud! How's the Cobra treating you these days?



Finally got my new front tires in but only had time to mount one of them today. :bash:

(Excuse how they sit in the wheel well. The rack isn't all the way down.)

18x10 rear with 295/35R18 BFG KDWS's

Looks awesome. Love the valve covers too with the coil on plug setup.
