07SHBYGT Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Hi, Has anyone purchased a set of the limited edition CS69 Shelby wheels? I would like to see photos of them on a Shelby GT. Thanks Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ingram4868 Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Several members have posted pics of their CS69 wheels in the 3 colors that are available. Is there a specific "limited edition" style or color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Rodgers Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 I wish they were available when I bought mine, if I recall they come with Shelby engraved on the lip. That is the way they all should have came. With that said, I still love mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastersmech1 Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'm considering a set as they definitely clear big brakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07SGT4578 Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 As far as I know only diff between any of the new limited signature wheels is that they read SHELBY molded in them on the wheel lip like the alcoas. You prob could not tell the diff from pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerS Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 They are black centers with Chrome spokes and outer rim. The center cap is the Blue CS logo with special edition added along with Carroll's signature. Very nice looking wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked through the 2008 Summer Shelby book but did not see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunedindon#5481 Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Those are really nice. They are even better in person. I saw a set being installed on a GT500 a couple of weeks ago at Tampa Bay Shelby. They were being done for Steve Turner, the editor of 5.0 Mustangs and Super Fords Magazine. They will be featured in the next edition of the magazine which isn't out yet. They looked really good on his Vapor GT500. So, if no one comes up with a picture of them on a GT500 or SGT check out the magazine or the 5.0 web page. I just checked and it isn't on their web page yet either. Also, if you are interested in getting them I know that you can get them through Steve at TBS. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikewheels Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 I would have bought those if they were out when I got mine. Too bad the center for those only comes in blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARALD KELLEY Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 I was going to purchase, but they only come in 20". So I bought the 18" from MM. They are nice wheels. Just not in 20". MM should be able to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it still available Sam These have been discussed a time or two. Fakes have been made, mainly on craigslist. A few people still have some in a back room or basement.

07SGTC Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 When they are special Editions! What happens if you need to replace one? Curbed or whatever may happen and the wheel needs to be replaced???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need inputs so I could go thru and check out each rim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to get rims that will allow me to upgrade the brakes....will your 18" clear the upgraded brake kits? Thanks, Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyGJ Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Anyone have a Vista Blue SGT with the CS69 Wheels on them? I'd really like to see the difference in appearance between the Black versus the Chrome. As long as I'm asking....how about 20 inch versus 18 inch, too? Thanks, Andy.

SGT0225 Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Do you know what issues they had? I was told ALL the CS69's 18" and 20" work for larger brakes - I just don't remember how much larger. The special editions come in a box that says "limited edition" they are ALL engraved in the rim "CSHELBY" and they all have the "special" center caps. Anything else, and I would be guessing. They are similar to the regular 20" CS69's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went with the 18 because of ride and I like the look of a liitle more side wall. To that end, many have the 20 inch rims and like the ride. I may just be old school. I can tell you the CS 69 now all have the Shelby script on the lip. When I got mine several years ago they did not. I had a tuff time finding a replacement one that did not have the Shelby name on the lip when I slightly scraped one. They will fit Brembos and 14 inch rotors..

Can you send me some pics of your rims? My email address is Andy@AndyJabaley.com if you don't mind I have not seen what ANY CS69 looks like with the black inserts on any car yet..
