Not Ranked

What I can't understand is why some ( a lot ) or cobra guys insist on the retro looking wheels and tires. They want to stay with 15" wheels and their 30year old dated tires. With more HP & Torque than even the comp cars had in the sixties, why wouldn't you want the best tires money can buy. There are just no HIGH PERFORMANCE tires in 15" size. With 17"s, you have a wide selection of performance tires, plus you can go for bigger brakes.

Sorry guys! For butting in. I'm just on the band wagon for high performance wheels & tires to match our high performance cars.
