I definitely think a good set of R spec Tyres is a necessity on a cobra. Think of the power to weight ratio the majority of our cars enjoy and the sort of Tyres that manufacturers put on their cars that have the same ratio.
5 years ago most cobras ran a big balloon rear 15 inch tyre because they looked good & were readily available. From what I understand now you can't buy them in oz anymore?? Or they are really hard to come by so builders of new cobras are forced to fit the more affordable 17 inch options.
Just my ramblings...
