cleghornm Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I have a 2013 Shelby and Missed out on the Alcoa wheel sale. Sadly due to my on fault, I confused the date of the sale so I went with the CS1 wheels on my Shelby. I hope they look right, I went with the black machined face and will post pics when I get them on the car. Wheels, sensors and tires shipped 2669.00 considering the cost of the Alcoas and having the widened, this is a deal. Any thoughts or any one else have these on their car.

WLDSNAKE Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 That looks like an excellent price & i googled them & they're a very nice looking rim. What kind of tire did u go with? Somebody else on here has the chrome chicane rims & they look awesome as well, I think I prefer them over the Alcoa's, too much pomp & hype about the Alcoa's IMO.

axo250 Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Post pics when you have them installed. I am seriously considering the CS-1s as well in the same color scheme. I havent been able to find any good photos on the net. Should look awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickshelby Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Taken from the web... IMO They look VERY nice! Anyone having an idea of their weight? They are cast not forged like the Alcoas but the rears are 11" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axo250 Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Patrick, thanks for the links. The solid colors don't tickle my fancy. I think the machined face is the way to go. Regarding weight, that appears to be the biggest criticism of the wheel. Though I don't remember the exact figures, the 11" rear is significantly heavier than most. I don't recall seeing front wheel weight comparisons though. Check around, I'm sure they are out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitch Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Americanmuscle.com says they are 34.6 & 40.9 lbs. respectively. I really wanted these wheels but that much weight scared me to CS40s...which are on par with the SVTPP wheels in terms of weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
