Are the wheel studs long enough for that adapter and wheel?
The spacer attaches to the car's stock lug nuts using the supplied lug nuts. Then the studs protruding from the spacer are used to mount the spare tire to it.

Edited: Mike replied with a visual. Way to one up me, haha.

Pretty slick eye deer, I didn't get it at first when I saw the spacer with ten holes...duh. I DO want to see a photo of this car wearing one of those though but for sure it'll get you home.

As I said I will put on the front tomorrow when the rain goes away since that seems the biggest issue with the size of the brakes, stay tuned. :)

This will not fit the Current 2020 GT500, as it clearly states this on their website, plus I spoke to them a month ago and they still have no had a prototype of the rim for the Shelby and the Brembo Brakes.

Short answer that everyone is waiting for. No it does not. I am calling for a refund and a call tag. I will explain in detail and pictures shortly.

Ok the long version, I went out since Tommy Boy couldn't wait (:D) to try this out, first off the bolts are all wrong and I couldn't even get to see if the tire would work. As soon as I put the spacer on I tried using the nuts that came with the spacer to mount the spacer to the rotor, nope the nuts are too small for the bolts on the car, so then I tried putting the Lug nuts of the car through the hole to mount the spacer, nope the holes are too small to allow the lug nut to pass through, at that point I gave up as I am not jerryrigging a spare. Here are the pictures.

I just left a msg asking for a refund and a call tag, if they dont call me back my credit card company will be getting a call for a dispute by the end of the day.

All you need to do is place the spacer on the hub, then put the wheel on the spacer and see if it clears the caliper. If so, 5 correct acorn nuts to attach the spacer to the hub and we are all set. I would do it if I had my car.

Sorry but I am not jerryrigging nor am I putting a spacer and then a wheel and holding it so the bottom of the tire doesnt look to pop outward, nor am I buying lug nuts when I paid $400.00 for it to work out of the box. If it doesn't work as advertised, then its false advertising, ESPECIALLY when Tyler ASSURED me this was tested and it works because the spacer had to be re-done for the GT500. You want to give them a pass thats on you, I look at it as if the spacer isnt going to fit then the tire more than likely wont either. Sorry Jamie.

No need to apologize to me, I am not offended. I understand they should provide the correct hardware, but if it’s just $10 worth of lug nuts that’s is the issue, I am not going to return a wheel that probably still fits. I will source my own lug nuts, and they can credit me the cost. If the wheel does not fit because the spacer is wrong, then yes I will return it.
