Does anybody have a suggestion for an 18"x 10 wheel that will fit a GT with Brembo brakes? Apex is sold out and don't have a firm production date set.

Team Dynamics 18x10. Run them on both my 15": 6 piston Brembo cars 2011 and 2016. Fronts need a 5mm spacer on the '15-'16, 15mm on '10-'14 cars
I get them through Blowfish Racing. Reasonably priced, super strong and fairly light. Made In the UK.

The specs show the 2011 have a 70.3 hub diameter. The 2016 have 70.5. So those wheels fit both your 2011 and 2016?

Mike I use them on both cars. No adapters except for H&R 15mm concentric spacers on my '11. I have run the '16 at Watkins Glen, Mid Ohio and Lime Rock so far this year.

We make our Spacers to 70.5 but I think 70.3 will fit. It is only a difference of .009" roughly and tolerances vary on many of the wheels and spacers. We measured brand new hubs and found some variation in the dimension. The hubs we measured ran about 2.772 to 2.775" (70.5=2.776")which is a littke more than the 2.768"(70.3)hub. The wheel hub is usually radiused and I know the factory PP wheels have a rather large dimension. When we designed the spacers our concern was 70.3 might tighten on the hub with heat depending which way everything grew. We also want the spacers to slip on so if you need to take them off you wont need a hammer and chisel ;) I think you'll be fine running any wheel made for either gen Mustang.
