I think ya'll are putting way too much into this.......if an insurance company doesn't want to pay on a claim your making because of the non DOT tires, than I and any insurance company can make a dam good case not to ever pay on any claim anyone with a Cobra makes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets see:
non DOT rated 4 pt./5 pt. seat belts
non DOT rated brake lines
non DOT rated brakes (how many after market brake set-ups have you seen in a Jegs/Summit catalog that say DOT RATED????????)
Do you know your racing brake fluid IS NOT DOT RATED AND FOR OFF ROAD USE ONLY?????
Non conforming tail lights/brake lights (does not meet the federally required total square inches per light)
non DOT rated wheels
and on and on and on..........

after all, these are kit cars even though some are 90% built on an assembly line or by the manufacter.........
There is not much on any Cobra that IS DOT RATED!!!!!!!!!!
