315s are a wide tire. They are very good for straight lines, but not so great for taking turns at high speeds. For taking turns under normal driving they will be more than fine.

the nitto 555R DR are excellent in the rain, and handle fine.

you dotn want to run them in the front though jsut the rear. you should run the factory 275's up front, 315 is WAYYYYY too wide for the front.

2 will run a little above $300

Also i know some of the 03 cobras problems with the block or heads or somthin and just curious cause they said on show that the ones made after november 1st 2002 or 2003 (forgot what year they said) were ok.
the heads dont have a problem,,,they just tick, and it is something you can barely hear with the naked ear.

want to know what u think??
Remember you will drive daily much more than at a drag facility. If you add a KB it will be like driving on black ice in 1st and 2cnd...I had problems having to constant feather the clutch on everyday driving when I was at 540 hp with a Whipple and it takes a lot of the fun out of a casual cruise IMO. You will wish you had that IRS. More turns than straight strips in everyday driving. Sounds like you will be able to afford the Termi next year plus a few mods but make sure you can afford the gas. You can only use premium and when you are at 500 hp or above you are looking at about 10-12 miles to the gallon. Beleive me I know. I put the Eaton back on because my ride is a daily driver till hopefully this spring then the KB goes on.
