I want to order some Wheels for my cobra but I am concerned that it won't fit my 2003 Cobra. Is the backspacing right or what? I was told it will fit a GT 94-04 but, not the Cobra. I am guessing IRS bolt issue? Is there any way around it.

17x9" FRONT
Wheel Backspacing: 5.85" Wheel Offset: +24mm
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 4.5 inch

17x10.5" REAR
Wheel Backspacing: 6.84" Wheel Offset: +27mm
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 4.5 inch

Also what size Tires would you put on these Wheels

Thanks :pepper:

Darryl,

Yes, using that width wheel in the rear will interfere with the IRS bolt. You can do two things, either grind the bolt down about 1/4 of an inch, or Steeda carries a bushing kit that contains button-head bolts.

A popular combo is the Nitto 555, 275/40R17 in the front with a 315/35R17 Drag Radial in the rear.
