Both would look good but go chrome.
Already went silver.

They look better in person. Sig pic was done with camera phone ( only 2mp) I'm eyeing a nice canon camera, so as soon as I upgrade my camera I will be replacing that pic.

On the Shelby website, they have 3 different backspacing for the razors, 5.5", 6", and 6.5", all are 24mm offset.

What did you guys get? Is it really different?

I think you misread that. In the description for all the razor wheels it says something about 6" backspace and 24mm offset being standard for 05-07 Mustangs (even though it's really not). But depending on which wheel you're looking at (5.5, 6, or 6.5 backspace) it says one of the following in the Special Notes below:

12mm offset (5.5" backspace)
24mm offset (6" backspace)
40mm offset (6.5" backspace)

You either want 24mm offset (for a flush with the fender look) or 40mm offset (slightly tucked like stock). All of the CS6 and CS8 cars pictured at the Shelby sites have 24mm offset wheels.

Thanks for the clarification!
