COBRA rims on an Explorer???

I was wondering if I would be able to put Cobra rims on my truck, 17's or 18's with a Goodyear or BFG tire, not low profile but enough meat on the tire to get my by 4 seasons. I have 235/75/15's now. Can it be done? Are they expensive? I was thinking I could get $400 for my rims and tires as is now. I have BFG long trail's and the stock rims are in really nice shape, the tires have 80% easy on them.

They are very inexpensive, I have 1998 Cobra's on my Evo, depending on the special, they are anywhere from $115/ea to $130/ea brand new.

I wonder what size tire, if it'd fit my wheel base and if I buy a set how hard is it to find them all the same width... I think sizing is the biggest issue and what size tire would do me right. I see a full set of black for under $500 bucks... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-Bl...19246616QQrdZ1

UGH that'd be sick with my billet grill, window tint, tail light covers and push bar...
