Yes
Just pre ordered a set!
So when is the deadline to order? Are the OEM center caps reusable?
order them now, the guy said the spots are filling up quickly! there are people buying multiple sets ( probably to sell them for profit) :cuss:
+1! Going to powedercoat them, though. You order the center cap?
i might powdercoat in the future....for now yes Im getting the center cap
DAMMIT!! They just had to bring back those SS wheels....AND I NOW HAD TO BUY THEMThere goes the clutch savings..LOL!!

wheels for 2013 gt500
what sizes are you all ordering? r u ordering 20x10 and 20x9 or r u getting 4 20x10?
will i run into issues if i run these in a 20x10 up front? is it better to just run a 20x9?

GET THEM. They will never come back. Those center caps are specially made for those wheels.
They will probably be gone by today. At the latest tomorrow.
And most likely these will be worth more by next summer.
The people who run the 20x10 up front usually widen the rear to 11 or 11.75 and run a larger rear tire.
I would get the regular set. I don't think anyone is ordering just 20x10s all around.

Anyone have a link to pics of these wheels on Shelbys?
Wouldn't the GT500 handle much worse with wide wheels at the front?

when i saw that 'veiled' thing in the past few days, i thought that was what that was going to be.
price?

That is what I suspect. Unless it is balanced with wide rears.
But same width all around is something I wouldn't do.
I wonder how wide of a tire can be put on the 20x9 and 20x10 without running into any issues though because 255 and 275 is too small.
But I would get these wheels think of it this way. Everyone believes they are the best looking wheels on shelby (which they are) and they are the only wheel that when you buy it you can sell it later at no loss.
I was thinking of buying HRE with a carbon fiber lip but that would cost me around 6k and when I want to sell them I'd probably have to sell them for 3k.
If you bought the old alcoas for 2k you could sell them later for 4k.
Just to put things in perspective.
