No point in wasting money now if you plan to change them up in a year.

i know but i would get my money back from them and after i sell the pro stars it will be very lil cash to get racestars, i see your point though, i just would like to get my ride height etc set up for a 17 in front , i will more than likely keep them on there a lil longer than a year,

I like your car the way it sits. I'd just save for the RTS's.

Yeah he did sell it, I saw the thread the other day.

Personally I like Race Stars, I'm not a huge fan of drag wheels but those look the best IMO and I'd rock them as a track set.

I think the prostars look badass on your car but if your wanting to get new rims you should save for the ones you really want.

Your ride height will stay the same with a 15" front wheel or a 17" front wheel. Both the standard front tires for 15" wheels (Sportsman Pro, SR Radial, Hoosier, ect) are a 26" front tire as well as the common 17" front runners (Hoosier, M&H, ect) so the only thing that will change is the diameter of the front wheel and the tire "profile" not the over all height or ride hight.

Yes sir I did. And thank you! 03/04 Cobras are very hard to find in good low mileage unmolested condition. I was glad to find the car when I did.

You could always get a pair of 17" racestars on the front, and run the same prostars on the back for now. Then when you're ready to buy a full set of RTS' you could reuse the 17" tires from the racestars and just sell off those rims to help cover the cost of the RTS set.
