Default 2003 Cobra OEM Wheel price?

Come summertime, I'm looking at going to a black rim. Anyone have any idea what I could get out of the set of wheels I have now? They're in great condition with no curb rash.

Sorry about posting in the show..i'm retarded. Forgot we had a tire and wheel section separate. Yeah sorry krenogin, but they're 17x9's. Thanks Red. I was thinking about ~300$ for the rims alone, as the tires are nearly brand new and I don't feel like parting with them.

Yeah Lazer I'll definitely hit you up if when/if I get around to selling them this spring. I wanted to sell them more local anyways to avoid shipping. And they are NOT chrome.

Yeah they look great, I just decided I'm going to make the car as black as possible. I gotta come up with the cash to get some new rims first though.

This is kind of a thread hi jack but the thread was pretty much over anyway and I didn't want to start a new one

Now if hokie does sell me these rims (hopeful) and he keeps his rubber and I have to get new stuff is it worth it to go 255 front 275 rear and lose the ability to rotate or should I go 255 all around cause I have a 6 and 255's should provide enough traction I don't care about winter cause I will keep my stock 15s and put some snow tires on them for the winter

Thanks in advance guys


P.S.

Either way I will probably be going with the nitto nt555's so is the 275 in the backs worth the extra 60 bucks for a pair

and what I'm going for is autocross tires so what I really want it cornering stability it's not for drags I don't know if running bigger in the back is better in autox I've never heard anyone mention if it helps

On the 94-98 I have heard that 275 will rub up front on a hard turn

If you're running stock springs I think you'll be okay Lazer. It would be a little cheaper to run 255's in the front though.

Double re-hijack. Anyone seen any 17x9 Black Saleens ANYWHERE? Do they exist?

I have the bullitt suspension kit which is equivilet to ford c springs so I would probably do 255 front 275 rear just to be safe
