Shelby Redline clear big brakes?

In the market for new rims and wondering if the Redlines clear a big brake kit(GT500 kit)? Pictures would be awesome.

My 20" x 8.5" Shelby Torque Thrust M's will be for sale. PM me

I do not think that they will fit with the big brakes. Tirerack.com offers the Shelby Redline wheels but when I looked up wheels that would fit the GT500 they were not listed.

Don't the razors fit the GT500 and their not listed? That's what confuses me.

CS40's should fit the GT500 brakes (4-piston Brembos).
Plus, this look a LOT better than the Redlines

Razors do fit the GT500 in the 24mm offset. The recommended offset for the GT is 40mm. Either offset will fit the GT but only the 24mm will fit the GT500. I went with the 24mm offset on my GT.

I looked at those. Not sold on the rivets around the rim. I like them better in the other two finishes. A awesome looking rim no doubt.
