Very awesome LL GT... Also really love those CS razor wheels as well... If only they were available in 18x9.5" sizes.

Those Shelby/Alcoa wheels have always been my favorite Gabe! If only I were able to locate/afford a set of the Shelby/Alcoa wheels in 18x9.5" from the 2008 40th Anniversary Shelby GT500KR limited edition? I'd snag them up in a heartbeat lol.

I can't believe how much the 18's are going for these days ... there's a brand new set with new tires for sale on eBay right now for $5,000

I totally get it in how the Alcoa 18's are getting extremely rare to come by for a new set these days, but even with new tires, 5k seems just a bit outrageous IMHO

I didn't really care for the KR wheels, were just ok to me. But I loved the super snake wheels on Mrs Gabe's car.

They're exactly the same design wheel... Only difference between them is the Alcoa's on the super snake are in 20" diameter and the Alcoa's on the KR are 18x9.5" diameter!

They're not. Look closer at them. The face of the KR is almost flat and the SS is more recessed deeper in with more lip around the rim. And the spokes have a thinner more rounded shape. I've looked at them side by side in person.
