If you look down in the notes it says:

Offset: +40
Backspacing: 6 1/2
Available lug patterns:
5-4 1/2
I sent them an email for clarification.

Here's the questions I asked and the response I got back

Hi,

Just wanted to verify that you have 4 silver 18x9 razor wheels with 40mm offset for sale. I am looking to put them on a 2007 mustang GT.

Also, do you know how much each wheel weighs?

Thanks
Hello. Yes, I have that available right now. I don't know for sure, but they are around 35 pounds each. I'd be happy to give you a shipping quote with your address. Thanks,
Darrin @ LWM
I think he's got the weight too high. Shelby autos says the 20x9s are 27lbs and I've seen the 18x9 chrome one listed at 26 lbs.

I spoke with Darrin and he said that they are coming out with the Shelby razor version (18x9 silver with 40mm offset). He estimated 6 weeks. He also said that these are $10 more per wheel than the non Shelby Razors.

FYI, he charges $15 each for the Shelby Razor wheel caps.

Not sure if they are the same but...I just put a set of Chrome Razors by A R E, 17x8 on my wife's car. Pretty sure they had 40mm off-set. The wheels were available up to 20inch. Go on the American racing website and take a look. Less than 700.00 for the set of 4

Do you have any pix? I'm curious if the 40mm offset razors are flatter looking than the 24mm.

Yes, I'm lowered w/ Eibach pro kit and BMR adjustable panhard bar. It's a bit more harsh, but not terrible.

Street Scene, I wish it looked as good in person as it does in pictures, but I'm working on fixing that.

Chris! The Car looks great! What offset did you end up getting. What tire size? I just lowered mine with the Steeda Ultralites. I returned a set of the Eibach's because I was afraid of rubbing on my 265/35/20's
