OK, UPDATE!
Got my Cobra R's on.
Rear tires are P275/40ZR/17's and the fronts are P245/45R/17's.
I will try to get a side profile shot up as soon as I can, right now I just did a few from the driveway for starters.
YUM! Undercoating! It seems to come out of everywhere
Perspective looks goofy from this angle, from the side (and not being up on a hill) they look (IMHO) freakin' AWESOME!
I like how they REALLY fill the wheel wells!

Are those the stock front brakes? What size are stock rotors? They look pretty small for a car that size, and even smaller with those wheels.88 Town Car (wrecked, for sale)
