The GT500 now has the attitude it always lacked (in my humble opinion).

The Shelby Razor wheels are available in black, anthracite or silver. One guy in the UK has already bought a set in anthracite, and with the Eibach Pro suspension drop, they fill the arches to perfection.

To be honest, when he first showed me the pictures I wasn't 100% sure (I thought nothing could sway me from Bullitts). But, the more I look, the more I love them. I'm now 110% sure. I'm a fan!

Thanks, as an fyi, the black wheels are not real. we were waiting on other wheels so we painted these. The final wheels will be a more teflon look. hope that helps. For those who like them. For those that think they "suck" well, they are an option....

About that illusive bouquet of flowers, is your preference with or without the thorns?

Just what I am waiting for. Is American Racing supplying the finish or is it being farmed out?

The "style" of the wheels isn't that bad, Amy. It's the size that "sux", IMO.

Amy, any chance the wheels will be available in 18 " ? Love the wheels but 20' screams to much for me and overwhelm the car's balance.

There's nothing wrong with the West Coast Customs' SE 4 x 4 look. Heck, consider yourself lucky they didn't go with 22s.

I believe they will have them in 18. I will check, but you could call American, if they have them now in 18, the black will also be in 18"

I think i'd like to retract that statement. The more I look at them the more I like them. The photos from SEMA show painted black. Amy B said that those were painted as the proper rims didn't come in on time. The ones they are selling have more of a teflon look.
