15s should be fine for the rear. But for the fronts you would need a 16 in. wheel to cover those big 13 in. brakes.

My girlfriend has a 00 v6 stang, she has 15" wheels on her's. So if the rear brakes are the same size as on the cobra then I knwo it will fit.

the bigger on the cobras..they also have IRS but if anything there is more room for lack of quads for running a wider tire

15" might fit i nthe rear, the front must be 17" or bigger, this is why your spare tire has a massive 17" rim, just to clear the front brake assembly.
