acroholic Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 How come there are no CS1 wheels listed at Shelbyparts.com? Just curious. They are for sale at some of the online places. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Carroll Shelby Wheel Co. is currently a seperate entity. We don't stock their wheels, (they drop-ship) nor offer them all, just select models.

acroholic Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Thanks Jer, I guess I figured it was all under Shelby American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F150 Duke Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 This was an excellent question! I've asked myself this before but never put the effort forth to figurer it out or ask. Now I know, thanks Jer! Oddly it always gave me the feeling the CS1 rims were not truely Shelby approved rims so I stayed away. I like their specs (not weight) and the look is growing on me. But I'm sold on trying to get a set of the Alcoas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msdcrd Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Regarding the "topic" for the CS40 and CS56 wheels: Has anyone ever actually seen either one of those wheels "upclose" and "personal"? The CS40 I've seen on YouTube mounted on some guys GT500 has that "retro" look IMO! The CS40 in available in "chrome, silver or matte black inards with "brushed finish outside. All have a nice design. The CS56, in chrome, has much larger spokes...."clearly" a heavier look. Anyone here on TS have a set mounted for viewing? I'd like to see more members pics if available. The CS1 are a "coin toss"....they are 11' wide (rears) "good", but there is just something missing IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SAI brochure shows a few pics of them installed. See link below. http://www.shelbyamerican.com/images/pdf/gt500se.pdf Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just ordered the Alcoas and i'm not so sure i really improved the looks that much. I've had people at car shows see my cs 40 wheels and see the alcoas on supersnakes and liked my cs 40's the best. The silver's really bring out the silver stripes on my car. You be the judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the CS1 wheels with 315s and I would rub if I lowered. See Pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
