Where is a good place to find these ? I found the kit NEW for $1150 but I would prefer getting some take-offs !

Martin, keep your eye on ebay. They're typically from GT500 owners who've upgraded to a six piston setup.

Almost forgot about the Shelby forums; that's where you're more likely to find them.

What's the best way to address winter tires, when you have a brembo setup? I'd prefer to do a full wheel swap in the fall/spring. Are there some decent-but-not-crazy-expensive wheels that'll fit a 2011-12 with Brembo's?

The 18" 2010 GT500 replicas "should" fit, which makes getting tires less expensive.

There are several stock brembo sized snow tires available as well if you want to go that route.

The 18" 2010 GT500 OEM wheels will definitely fit and they're OEM fitment not replicas. Great wheels and great price, I got mine from Rehagen Racing.

Sorry if I'm bringing this thread back from the dead but I have a question:

Do you have to replace the rotors on your first brake job? Can't they be turned?
