What do you think of this look?

I know alot of shelby guys put razors on their cars, but I still have not seen a better look for my car. Mine is tungsten gray. Here is my car currently, and another owners car I found, not sure what forum, with the gunmetal razors I want.

I think that combo looks fantastic ! I'm not a big fan of Razors but in this case they work very well IMO.

I'd like the Razors better without the rivets, but I like the color on your car.

What about these, they come in a varity of finishes. Schottwheels.com

That's a good looking wheel, but will they clear the Brembos?

I do not want chrome. Their is no chrome on my car whatsoever, all brushed aluminum, that is why I liked the gunmetal razors with brushed lip. Cokeman, just ok? I think the car looks aweful tough!

Check out their web site they come in brushed, polished, painted or any combination. They are made for mustangs not sure about gt 500's.

I think the gunmetal razors look great with the tungsten gray.

I also am not a fan of Razors but have to agree that the color combo looks awesome!

My personal favorite wheel - and yes, they clear the Brembo's

Can be ordered in just about any size/width might want

Nice selection of wheels on their site - Boze Alloys - CUSTOM FORGED WHEELS

Price is also a concern. The razors are priced right. 790.00 for all 4 shipped to my door. All these other rims are alot more expensive. Another beautiful wheel is "manowar"s car on team shelby. But also very expensive.

Not crazy over the Razors and the rivets.

Wheels are such a hard choice to make, especially on this car...that's why I still have the stock wheels.

When evryone has changed to aftermarket then my stock wheels will look custom.

I really like the gunmetal razors on that color car think it looks tip top.

my07shelby · #15 (**permalink**) 06-06-2009, 08:52 PM

Thanks rown4au, I still have not seen another wheel that I like better for my particular color. There are plenty of awesome wheels out there, but for other colors. I do like these CS wheels, but not on my tungsten. Looks great on this shelby though.

Funny you have this pic, I have the same one in my Shelby Pic collection from the web, this dude knows his Google Search techniques.

First your car looks great as the 07 only Grey you have is very under rated, IMO.

I like the Razors look, but I'm not sold on their quality, the are made in China and I know personally many folks that have problems with Razors not being true to the extent they had to be replaced. If you see my tranny thread the Black with Red stripe Shelby Vert in one of my pics had been sitting at my dealer waiting for a week for a new razor that ended up being warped.

JTB, thanks for compliment on my color. What problems have been reported, are they warped or cosmetically, peeling, etc. That concerns me. After I put on springs, panhard, lower control arms, I might just keep the stockers, have seen many shelbys that way, and the stock rims look ok then. But I am fan of the 20" look, do not race the car, so not concerned with wheel diameter. thanks.

my07shelby · #18 (**permalink**) 06-06-2009, 10:14 PM

JTB, by the way, your alloy color is sweet also, that is the one color that I may like more than my tungsten!

i am thinking about having my stocks painted to match my emblems when they're done...........face of the center painted glossy black with the inner edges of the "spokes" and the rim hit with the same tinted clearcoat as the emblems (see my thread "Emblem"). I am hoping to find a cheap test wheel to see if really like it.
