Weld Wheels 94 Cobra

darkcyd · August 14th, 2007, 10:58 PM

i have a 94 cobra and wanted 15x5 or something like that and 15x8.everyone says it is hard to do with the cobra brakes.just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.

I have a 1996, but the same brakes. I would also like to know the answer to this. I also hear there are front clearance issues also.

Is there a spacer that would make it work? I'd hate to lose my nice brakes.

a set of 15x8 welds with 4.5" BS will fit in back without any problems.

The front however, is another matter. You need a 7/16" spacer, 3" studs, AND you will need to clearance the caliper slightly...

OR.. you can run a 1" spacer, 3" studs with deep shank lugs, and deal with the tire sticking out a bit in front...

OR... you can buy a set of bogart wheels..

Not sure if this helps or not...but i have 10.5'' rims on the back of my 95gt wrapped in 315 35's with no clearance issues whatsoever...and no spacers...so i think thats about as big as you can go.

yeah it is the biggest you can go... make sure you changed the shock upside down... if not your gona ruin some stuff though.. i have 17x10.5 .... 17x9 in the front but but you will rub when you turn sharp... just get some nitto dr's they make them in the 315 35's i run them with light weight fr500's and it is an awesome set up i like it better than my weld prostars by alot
