In my opinion, 31" on ANY Cobra would be too tall. Look in my gallery. I'm currently running one of the largest 15" performance tires available (MT drag radial, 325-50s, in the rear) and they measure ON THE CAR at 27.5". The fronts are MT drag radial 255/60s and they measure just under 27" on the car. They fill-up the wheel well just right and I couldn't fathom running a taller or wider tire on my SPF for several reasons (both asthetically and performance wise).

For 15" super sticky DOT radials there are really only two choices: Avon or a drag radial (MT, Goodyear, etc.). Some here have tracked with the Yoko Avid STs, so they are a compromise for those that don't want to spend more $$ on the former choices. And at around $100/ea, they (Yokos) really are a bargain.
