...and they look good on the car too. (245 front and 295 rear)

I'm in the process to make stencils - like the picture below. Just with the addition on the opposite side reading CR6ZZ.
Picture is from the GT forum (thanks guys) Painting Avon CR6ZZ - GT40s.com

if you don't have 15's, for the love of god don't go out a buy some ....
15's = yuk, too much sidewall
17's = very nice
18's = exceptionally nice, great tire selection
why go with 60's tech in wheels when your replica has very little 60's tech elsewhere, it's only a copy of a 60's roadster using the latest tech at the time it was built. if the body style is close, and they all are, mission accomplished - go high tech everywhere else, it's already a forgery

Same here loved the look of a Cobra since day one including the rubber.Those billboards look some kind of nice on a Cobra wish they could be bought in radial construction.Not a big fan anymore of bias with the thumping or flat spot feel.Hope someone will tell me the new billboards do not do that. |
