    Anyone Know Slicks/tire Combo, Or Have One For Sale???

    Hey guys im wondering the backspace and tire sizes i can get away with on my 04 cobra with the 8.8 rear, and front runner specs also. ( i would like to avoid the spacers IF i can).

    IF YOU ARE SELLING A SET I WILL TAKE THEM.......please no draglites.

    I'm trying to get ready for the firebird on friday so i hope you are local, or have info so i can ship them from summit or jegs by then.

    I have no idea if the 8.8 is a 99-04 or Sn95. if there is a way to tell let me know and i will check

    THANKS FOR THE HELP!!

    i have weld prostars 15x10 with 6.5" back spacing. i have gt rotors with cobra calipers on my 9" rear.

    upfront i have 15x3.5 with i believe 1.5" back spacing. and i have a 35 mm integrated spacer for the front. I have to cut the non threaded part of the wheel studs for the spacers to fit.

    I run a 15x10 with a 6.5 BS on a 98 width rear axle.

    What we need to know is what front and rear size rotors you have.
