Shelby razor rims

Hi does anyone know if it’s possible to put 20x10 rims on the front of a 2005 mustang gt? I’m interested in the satain silver Shelby razor rims but unfortunately can only find 20x10 and they discontinued the 20x9.Any help would be appreciated . Thanks

The 20x10 is a deep-dish design, the spokes would hit the caliper if mounted on the front.
With that 48mm offset they'll fit great on the rear, but the front is a No unless you do some thick spacers, and then they'll stick out beyond the fender ....

Ya that sucks because I can find the satin silver but only 20x10 . They are discontinued so they don’t have 20x9 in stock anymore. Unless I can find someone that had a set of 20x9 all around and willing to trade for a pair 20x10 lol. I appreciate the reply back . Thanks

Deepest I have seen on the front is a 9.5. I am running 20x.9.5 on all four.

I know people that run 11"-wide front wheels.

Spoke design and proper offset are the keys to properly fitting wide wheels.

I think the offset is 48mm . I just wished I knew for sure they would fit because I would buy them tomorrow. But American muscle says on there website that size is only good for the rear .

^ ^ ^ sometimes AM is over conservative with their fitment info; but from post #2 earlier in this thread it sounds like the Shelby Razor 20x10 will not clear the brake caliper on the front due to the deep dish design; I guess that is the wheel that you are still talking about

yes you can fit up to 11" wheels on the front but the design of the wheel and the offset are critical
