I hope I don't step on anyone's toes here, that's not my intent. I just think the 17's look to big for such a small car. I know the bigger that big wheels on cars today is very popular. On a lot of custom hot rods with small profile tires, they look radical but, on Camaro's, Firebirds, and other smaller cars like, the cobra, it's just too much wheel, they look bigger than the car. I would love to get a tire size of 335/35 or so but, a 15x10 is the largest I can fit. I may even narrow the axles, frame or wheel wells to get there. It's too bad there isn't a bigger selection for 15". The 17's make the cobra to "Retro" for my taste. Maybe someday, I'll change my mind ?
