    I love how the 275's look on the front, they seem to stick-out ever so slightly, which I think looks mean. Its boggles the mind how they don't rub the fenders, even when going over bumps at full turn-lock.
    Tramelling is a bit more pronounced now, I don't think I'd want to go any wider.

    275's up front isn't all that crazy when you consider the '03-'04 Cobra's came with them all the way around right from the factory. What would look silly is having them mounted on a set of 7" or 8" wheels instead of a set of 9" wheels like they should be mounted on.

    +1... completely agree to that statemeny... however, on our cars for some reason it just looks real bad ass...

    i was a little cheap @ the time when i grabbed my rims originally, i couldnt pass up a deal i had... so im runnin some Toyo Proxies up front and the KDS Drag Radials in the rear... the rear tires i got with about 50 miles on them for $200.... so i look sorta stupid w/ miss-matchin tires but whatever... this winter ill be going all BF Goodrich, it was only a temporary fix... :nice:

    true but the newer body styles have fender flares to hide the monster tires

    I dont get how some guys have 275+ on the front and dont stick out and i have 255 45s on 9in rims and they stick out more than that. Maybe my knock offs are just ****ty or something.

    youll be fine.. the most thatll happen is ull rub here or there making a TIGHT turn or going up a incline the wrong way....

    Again....'03-'04 Cobra's came "stock" with 275's all the way around, so clearance isn't going to be an issue unless you've done something really stupid and tacky like slamming the car into the weeds.....in which case you need to turn in your Mustang keys immediately and buy yourself a Honda instead. ;)
