The new redlines are on my Shelby GT

[Redfireshaker06]

This is what happens

 

[Redfireshaker06]

If you actually look hard, you can tell theres hardly any clear coat. I would say a thicker layer of some high quality/high temp clear would do the trick. Mine were warranteed because of the pitting. But unfortunatly no one had anymore of the 20's. So I was SOL

 

[SilentScope]

i think ill get mine shot with a nice clearcoat

 

[Redfireshaker06]

Good call. I just want others to learn from what I experienced. Since the wheels are the best looking. But don't last

 

[NYShelby]

Crap, have to talk to my brother today, see if it can be done with the tires on already

 

[Redfireshaker06]

Especially living in NY w/ the road salt

 

[Stang613]

Shelby, what are you lowered on?

Wheels look great, by the way!!

 

[KcMstang]

Yeah, CS69 did the same thing on the lip area. Is there no way of buffer out or possibly using a clay bar since they are clear coated...somewhat at least?

 

[SilentScope]

^ the problem is it actually pits through the clear coat. That's on the metal. My old cobra rims on my 00 did the same. Just gotta take good care of your wheels like your paint.

One of the two best looking wheels for the S197! Crazy..so thats snow....weird

 

[NYShelby]

Yeah Shane361 I luv these wheels and said if I got one of these cars I had to have the wheels, well I got the car and now I have the wheels. And yes that's snow,(silentscope not a word about snow lol) I don't get to use the car much.
Stang613 thanks and thats how the car comes set up from Shelby

 

[SilentScope]

Its lowered 1.5" on FRPP springs and struts.

And that stuff they call snow, well the closest I get to that is the ice in my cooler when I take beer to the beach in January.

 

[cm581978]

is this the official Shelby GT thread? lol

 

[Redfireshaker06]

I don't have one, but I have the wheels lol

 

[SilentScope]

because white shelby GT's are the best

 

[NYShelby]

White Shelby GT's are the best join the group lol

 

[NYShelby]

AAAHhhhh love how she looks with the wheels

 

[Redfireshaker06]

Very nice man.

The dealership added $1500 to my trade in (if I get a new car) if I keep the wheels on it. I only paid $1000 w/ tires + $350 for the next set of tires. lol

 

[NYShelby]

Thanks alot man

Finally picked my wheels and mounted them, love the way they look

What width did you get? I was wondering if the 10" wide wheels fit on the front.
