you could easily put a 295 40 18 on there, possibly even a 305

are you wanting to keep the stock speedo gearing?
305 35 18 will do that,
315 30 18 would be a better choice

I run 315 35 17s on my cobra R's

56K BEWARE 9 images!


These are the most recent...just a few of them.
I am running Nitto NT555 275 40 17 fronts, and NT555R Drag Radial 315 35 17 rears.
I cant complain, perfect stick-out, great wet traction for a drag, or any tire for that matter, and good traction when warm.

I would have gone smaller in the front (not as wide), but when i worked there, someone ordered these 4 months before I got there, and I found them in the racks while organizing, and offered below cost for them...and got em.
I have certificates and everything, even for the drags (you cant get em for the drags...haha...but i do!)
Wider the tires, the more they like to hydroplane at higher speeds (60+)
our freeways like to hold water bad, so it wasnt the most pleasant ride home...but since I have my DD now, I dont have to worry about that!

17x9 I believe...all around.
The guy before me put them on, but I totally forgot to check when I put my tires on...

335s...damn, 315s are all i can get
I want 18" cobra R's on the rear, so I can have the BFG Drags even stickier!
