Hey guys i currently have a set of fr500 rims on my 03 cobra and I'm looking to get rid of them and get some black rims put on my car. They are 17x9 and 17x10.5. I was wondering what kind of black rims i should get? i have a 03 sonic blue cobra and i wanted to go with a bigger rim as well? maybe 18 or 19 inch? What is the highest i can go? I do want to have 315's in the back so will that play a factor in the bigger inch rim. i have seem other cars with 19x11? Oh and i kinda like the stock rims painted black but i wanna go BIGGGG. Lemme know guys thanks!

19's are too big on our cars IMO, id go 18's max. it really depends on how much youre looking to spend, ccw and trueforged have some really really nice wheels that are sick...what i will have one day. or if youre looking for something a little less pricey you can get black oem wheels 17X10.5 maybe 18X10.5 (not sure bout that though) black 03 cobra replicas or saleens.

There is that black Vert that was at the Victor Ford show. He had the carbonfiber hood and trunk and the Saleen wing. Anyway, that car has 20 inch iForged wheels in back and 19s up front. They look tits but performance for shit when you star going that big.

I have 18 x 10s in the back with a 305 and it was a good thing i oredered the low profile irs bolts cus the stock ones were gonna rub, so i think you might need spacers or a custom offset. Otherwise heres a few pics

Alright, so I can either get some black 18" Saleen rims sent to my house for 400$ but with no tires. Or order some black 03 cobra replicas off cruisionzoncepts or whatever. Thing is If I go with the 18" saleens can I go 315" in the back or will I have to get spacers? 1/2"?? and where can I get those?? Lemme know guys Thanks
