You need at least 18s to clear the calipers. I've got the upgrade on mine from Baer and run the Y2K Cobra R 18s. The caliper is pretty close to the wheel too!

you can run 17's

you don't need 18's

Im a little confused....i thought the cobra came with 17" yet you recommend 18s

All you need are 17s for the cobra/bullitt brake upgrade. Most Baer and brembo will fit too.
