2002 Cobra??? I am a lil confused by your post unless it was a posting error. They didn't make a 2002 Cobra in the USA. If they still call the Canadian Mustangs Cobra's perhaps but then wouldn't you mention kilometers vs miles?

Right you are. It's a 2001 model. BTW, Canadian Mustangs have never been called Cobras.

Look at the BFG KDW. Good all around tire, good traction. Don't last long on my car, but I love the smell of burning rubber.

Cobra and I'm looking for tires that will last longer

Thanks Tom, How is that tire on acceleration? I'd still like to have a useable 1st gear. As you know, these Cobras are prone to wheel hop.

Yes in fact at one time they were called Cobra's in Canada. I know for sure during the 80's, not sure how long they continued using the name though.

I live in Canada, and Mustangs have never been called Cobras unless they were Cobras.

No, that's not right. They were called Cobras. I had one. An '89. You can still buy the Canadian Cobra stickers. Identical to the GT, just a Cobra decal on the trunk.

Then you either have not been there long enough or you didn't pay attention at the time.

Probably a gesture by Ford to make you feel better about paying that high Canadian mark up.

I am pretty sure it was to keep the name alive. The use it or lose it theory.

Nick :)

It's more then a theory.
