Default need help with rims

i am looking to get some rims and tires for my cobra soon. I am not sure on exactly what size this kit will fit. i want to go with a bigger rim then the standard 15 inch. i like the 17" cobra r rims but i am not sure if this kit can fit 10.5" wide rim in the back without hitting the body. If anybody has used different rims then the standrad 15" for this kit i would like to hear what you used thanks.

I have 17" x 10.5 America Racing Shelby Cobra Knock off rims in the back and they are well under the wheel well. Make sure your tire diameter is maxed out if your running a big block, if not the motor will be screaming on the high way.

To get the correct answer to your "wheels question", phone Vintage Wheels in California. They make custon wheels with desired offset for caliper clearance, as well as diamiter and width of rim. They even supply correct tires for size of wheel you want. Even if you wish to use non DOT tires for the track

Get 18 inchers, go with 335/30/18, they fit and look awesome... I'm thinking about getting this size for my car...
