the answer will make your decision for you!
That really depends on if your cobra is a total replica, most aren't. I have a Ram SC with knock off compomotive 17" x 12 rears, 17 x 10 front and it doesnt look like a BMW. Tyre availability and larger selection 17" have it, plus another advantage with 17" is you can fit larger brakes if you wish and that can help for a bit of racing, from my experience brakes inside 15" wheels are marginal.
