GOTVENOMGT500 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I honestly have no idea, but I'm curious what the reason is you've heard the 2011's won't fit on the 2010's? The brakes aren't any bigger, I would think the bolt pattern is the same since I'm doubt Ford would change after one year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henrycp Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Is it true that you cant put these 11' wheels on a 2010 Shelby? I would sure think they would. The 2010 and 2011 without the SVT package are the same car (except AL block and electric power steering) and with the SVT package I do not see any changes listed specific for fitting the wheels. That being said though, I think the biggest challenge will be getting your hands on a set. Ford wants $1,200 a piece for the 19" stock wheels. I would have to guess the SVT wheels would be at least that much. Ford may only sell them to SVT owners to...that's just a guess, have no facts to substantiate. So you'd have to find a 2011 owner wanting to sell them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezkill Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 The SVT package also gives you a different gearing ratio to compensate for the taller wheel. I'm not sure how much of a difference having the taller wheel an retaining the same gears would make... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2011 SVTPP comes with a 3:73 rear (SVTPP ONLY) to compensate for the larger wheel. Putting a 2011 SVTPP wheel on your car will degrade the acceleration as yours has a 3:55 rear, therefore, making it marginally slower. Doesn't make sense unless it is for looks only.

SVTSnake Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 I would like to know if the SVT PP 20" will fit on front. If someone getting one could try this out let us know that would be awesome. Will it clear front brakes? I assume it would, but would like to know for sure. And yes it's just for looks. Any wheel change is for looks, otherwise no one would buy anything. So somebody let us know if we could run the 20"s on all four corners or the 19"s on all four (this would be better). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Snakes have 20's on all four corners. I don't see why they wouldn't work unless the width is a factor. Phill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
