17X9 Cobra R 275/40/17

Will a set of 275/40/17's on a set of 95 Cobra R wheels rub in the front on my 99GT?


Thanks

Matt..........you should be just fine(this is 2k2GT, Tony Bolton). I run the Cobra R's with a wider than normal 275/40 and it all works good. I run spacers on the wheels(about 30mm)just to try and get the widest track possible.

If you rub anything, it would be the front swaybar or part of the upper fender lining. Nothing really harmfull.

FWIW, I actually run 17x9.5's in the front and they barely rub.

Thanks for the info Tony.

Looked like you ran damned good at the last meet, maybe next time you can give me some pointers.....

Just get some sticky tires and hug the inside line!

that is my goal, I want to finish this season in OSR I guess and move to SM next year.... Gotta find me some good rubber BTW Mastercraft tires suck on the AutoX

no problems at all, i've ran 275/40-17's all the way around for a while on my last 98 & now my 03 with not a single rub at all.

btw - i have hankook ventus sport 104's all the way around
