Hey guys, so I recently made the switch from my turbo terminator to an 07 GT500. 2.8KB and full supporting mods making over 700 to the wheels. The car currently is on Forgestar F14s and after the recent release of the 15x10 f14 drag edition wheels, I thought it would make for an awesome drag combo. Now my question is whether or not they will fit? I understand you would need a sway bar relocation kit, however I was told it wouldn't clear the stock brakes. There are obviously plenty out there running 15s so I'm just curious to see if anyone has any input. Backspacing is 7.2" if that helps. Here is a link for other specs.

Thanks guys

And a few pictures of my new toy :D

Nice new toy! The wheels will fit as the 07-12 Shelby's have the same rear brakes as the normal mustangs. The 13-14 Shelby's got larger diameter rear rotors so these wheels probably won't fit them.

Thanks man, I thought so but American Muscle said that it wouldn't clear the 07-09 brakes either so it through me off

Also interested in this. I had forgestar F14 19” in the front and 15x10 drag wheels in the back on my old 2012 GT. LOVED the wheels and stance!

Now I want a set again for my 2008 Gt500, but thrown of by American Muscle saying they wont fit.... on the otherhand Ive seen 07-09 gt500 with them on instagram. Does anyone know more about this?

Yes, they fit the 07-12 GT500. I also asked AM to pls change the description last year when I bought mine, guess they didn’t.

What size you run front and back?
I had 255/40/19” front and 275/60/15” on my 2012 GT. Wonder if I could fit a wider tire back on the 15x10 wheel?

I use to run a 275/40/19 up front, but decided to drop some rotational weight and it now wears 225/55/17 and 275/60/15 out back.

You can go wider in the rear but you will lose some height and gain some fender gap.
