That is the best looking wheel on a Shelby. I'd get a set if the price was resonable.
For those who had them widened, did you remove the bump stop bracket that is welded to the inner fenderwell to make them fit?
from what i understand and i may be wrong.... but per teamshelby.com unless you have a KR/SS number they will not be selling you a set. hopefully im wrong, but thats the way i took what i was reading..
It is not a matter of not having a KR/SS number. The wheel has been discontinued and there is still a lot of demand for this design, they are discussing options about either having Alcoa make another production run or have another wheel supplier reproduce the wheel as close to original as possible.
They will sell them to any customer, not just KR/SS buyers.
i should have reworded that. from what i understand shelby has gotten with alcoa to make a run of these wheels. but they will be limited to who they sell them to. if i can find the link ill post it

I would have wanted these....but, not now. I've resolved my wheel issue.
What wheels did you go with instead of the Alcoa's?
the 18" gt500kr alcoa has never been offered to non-gt500kr owners. The 20" gt500 super snake wheel is what was offered through spp (shelby performance parts) but, the spp 20" alcoa was not like the original super snake 20" alcoa. The original 20" super snake alcoa had "super snake" and "shelby forged" engraved on the wheel lip, the spp 20" super snake alcoa only had "shelby forged". Since spp has quit selling non-super snake engraved 20" alcoa's to the public and only the original super snake wheels with super snake engraving are available, a csm number and matching vin is required for purchase. Nothing has changed with the alcoa 18" for the gt500kr.
