I may have missed it but what back space is needed on the wheels? A 16" won't clear? I have 16x7" with 4" BS torq trust II's on the front. I guess I would need new wheels and tires too... nice product, BTW.
 
looks like 17" wheels with 4.5 inch backspacing. But damn that looks nice. To convert from front drums, what does something like this cost.... Minus the wheels of course.

The backspacing is really only relevant to where the tire sits in the wheel well. To clear the brakes you'll need to know the backside spoke profile to wheel mounting pad relation. Here is a tech article we put together - http://www.streetortrack.com/What-wheels-will-work-with-my-13-quot-SN95-Cobra-conversion-p-6.html

Oh, and you'll need 17" wheels...

I recommend first reading out tech article on what wheels will work and the differences between an OE Cobra rotor and our higher hat offset rotor - http://www.streetortrack.com/What-wheels-will-work-with-my-13-quot-SN95-Cobra-conversion-p-6.html

From a drum spindle you can either use:

Cobra bracket kit - $219, if you want to piece together your own additional parts - http://www.streetortrack.com/13-Cobra-front-bracket-kit-for-65-73-DRUM-spindles-pr-23991.html

Higher hat offset rotors and bracket kit - $449, if you already have Cobra calipers - http://www.streetortrack.com/13-Rotor-bracket-kit-for-DRUM-spindles-pr-23823.html

Full turn-key kit - $1099 - http://www.streetortrack.com/Street-or-Track-13-Front-Disk-Brake-Kit-for-DRUM-spindles-pr-23824.html

In 99 I was moving from England to CA on a one way plane ticket, visa in my pocket and 2 suitcases in my hands!
