9599svt Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I was wondering if all 18" rims that have the proper bolt circle and are 9.5" or less wide will fit on our shelbys? I was looking at getting a 225/50R18 tire mounted on a cheap 18x8 rim ( for a spare) and was wondering if it'll fit over the brakes(or and other problems)? Or if a special offset or something is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9599svt Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I did some more looking around and found out that not all rims will work, mainly because of how wide the front calipers are. So a rim with sufficiant clearance with the spokes of the rim is needed. I am finding that this is not an easy task to figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We offer the CS69 and CS56 in 18x9.5 full rotational fitment that will clear the Brembo calipers on the GT500 www.carrollshelbywheels.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
