thomas, shelby has done a 20% sale every black friday for the past 3-4 yrs on these wheels but i didnt check this past BF if they did or not. but anyway you'd have to wait another whole year for the sale anyway. or you could just go with the BC Forged KL-17 which is what the SA wheel is. the SA wheel does give you the embossed "shelby" on the wheel but i am pretty sure BC has distributors to Philippines and the wheels will be cheaper than the SA. you can also choose pretty much any color you want if you go BC directly. you can always just do the exact offsets that the SA wheel is on the KL-17 too. just saying you have options.Thank you Chris, I will get these on my 70th Birthday 7 years from now as I don't have a extra gold bars laying aroundPlus getting them here. The past 6 to 8 months, its getting harder and more expensive to ship stuff into the Philippines. Marcos wants more Tax revenue, so customs is becoming harder to deal with. Sucks.

I will have to figure out another way to get them here, If I can get LBC to sea freight them here, or find a importer to also deal with Customs as that is another $1000.00 on top of $6495.00
Same as the wheels Shelby offers. Don't recall off-hand what that was, but here's the link with that info:

Joe, you mention a company before to me. BC this right?
But you gave me a specific contact before, if you can Joe can you please PM me that info on the wheels and contact person please.
BC is out of Taiwan I guess?
Thank you Joe

Wow, do they have these in Glossy Black? Your Snake looks stunning Tony
I would buy from BC Forged instead of Shelby. BC Forged you will get cheaper, choose any color, and choose better offsets.
actually this is a pretty good point. with the Shelby wheels you have to buy the whole set and I've never seen anybody selling individual ones used, you just don't see it. just something to think about.

Wish I would have known this earlier, front offset not what I want, back is good. Does BC make them for shelby America?
yes they do, the wheel you have is the KL-17. I'm assuming that you would prefer to have the front wheels more aggressive and stick out a little more than they are? you can always add a very small spacer very easily. if the wheels are too far out for your taste already, then you can't do much...
looking at the shelby wheels, your fronts are 11" ET28. i'm going to say you want them more aggressive. i have the same KL-17 wheels direct from BC Forged and my front is 11" ET39 and running a 27mm spacer which makes it functionally a 11" ET12. so your set up is 16mm more tucked in than mine (that's over .6" tucked in). maybe a bit hard to tell from this pic below but my fronts are pretty much flush with the fender. i would recommend you get 15mm spacers from OP Mustang (best spacers around, and they are on sale right now) and call it a day, you will love the look, they just slide on super easy.
zoom in and you can see the fronts are flush with the fender...

You are correct, the fronts are 28 offset, factory was 30, I thought they would be flush, but NO, spacer city here I come, mine were $800 apiece, and they do say shelby.

Oh yeah, that's what I want, I'm base model, have to see if I have enough stud for that spacer
should be no problem, my buddy with a base 500 has the same setup, just run open lugs which you're doing anyway I assume

I ordered a set of the Shelby signature wheels and now I'm thinking about the offset as well. Just confirming, you're suggesting 15mm spacers up front on the Shelby branded wheels for a flush fit?
the vast majority of gt500 guys who buy aftermarket wheels for the fronts and who stick with 20x11 are running offsets between ET10 - ET16. that goes for BC Forged, Signature, etc. I am at ET12. it's a good look, really good. yes 15mm spacer gets you ET13 with the shelby wheel. it'll push the wheel out a little more than 1/2" than without the spacer.
when did you get the wheels chris? I don't remember you posting about it. looks good. I think the general criticism for the stock wheels was how the rears are fine but the fronts are way too sucked in. the factory wheels are plus 32 on the front and the Shelby wheels are plus 28 so only 4 mm more poked. adding a spacer just makes it a little more aggressive. but I guess yours is fine since you have the fastest color right 😆
