    Default New rims & meats for the Cobra

    Well, I quickly got bored with 17x10.5 Cobra wheels and BFG 315 drag radials..so I decided to switch it up and go with a little different of a rim..and little bigger of a radial..why not right?? Well, enough BS..onto some pictures.

    JUST KIDDING



    But seriously, I went with a set of 18x9.5 and 18x11 CCW Classics. Brushed Titanium Centers, Mirror Polished lips. Unfortuantly I only have the rears here, and they're not on yet because NO ONE IN THIS STATE CARRIES A 1/4 WHEEL SPACER. But here's a couple teaser pictures.

    345/30/18 BFG G-Force T/A tires. 5/16th spacer and a lot of BFH.

    No fancy shots, just a couple pictures from the parking lot at work.

    Took a couple cell pics looking down the side from the front and top view. They stick out about 1/2" or so. Going to spend some time this weekend and see if I can get them to fit without the spacer.
