Default Help: Shelby Razors in Black

Does anyone have a picture of the Shelby Razors in Black? 18x9 and on Black, preferably. Also where is the cheapest price to get these?

Try this link,
http://www.shelbyautos.com/gallery.asp?car=50040th1

It has several GT500 with Razors. I just ordered silver 18" razors through discount tire(which they order through american racing) for 195 a wheel. Very good price for what i found on the net. Only plce I saw the black razors though were from shelbyperformance. Good luck.

ok, i would still go w/ the 275 for width, bc my 20's are also 9" wide and the rims stick out a little bit, so i really gotta be careful when parallel parking bc i might scrape the rims. and i would still go w/ 45 for side wall, bc i dont like the super low pro look, but if you do than thats fine too. but i would go w/ the 275 for width definately to help insure no rim scraping. try check out the latest 5.0 magazine, they got a CS8 in there w/ shelby rims, 20's, but the side walls and width look good.

If you'll be on 18's and you don't want to have to change the speedo calibration, then I suggest 255/45, or 275-285/40.

For a more perfect match, go to Tire Racks website and look at the 'sizes and specs' of the tires you're interested in. In the chart will be a 'rev's per mile" number. Try to match this as closey as possible to your stockers (which, I think, are about 768, but don;t quote me). You'll notice that even tires of the same size and profile will have different revs/mile, sometimes by 15 or more.

I can tell you that BFG G-Force KDW2's are about as close a match, in this regard, as you'll get. Hope this helps.

I'm not too worried about that, I've got a Xcal2. But as of right now, I'm thinking I'll be going with 255/45/18s.

Does anyone know what most places are selling them for? The only price I've seen listed online is from Shelby direct and thats $234/ea. Also, what backspacing? 5.5 or 6?

Thanks guys!
