Just got CF5Vs on my car after waiting on my order for 12 :headbonk: weeks while it was too cold here in CO to drive on the MPSS!
This is my winter wheel setup and I am really happy with the look. Here are the details:
- 19x10 square setup, piano black finish
- Front ET 25, Rear ET 50
- Bridgestone G-FORCE COMP-2 A/S, 275/40-19

Looking good [MENTION=19800]CSL[/MENTION] @ Shift [MENTION=13658]TDC[/MENTION] thanks guys, cant wait to get your wheels to you guys, the Forgline and BC Forged wheels are going to be epic!

As for the Forgestar wheels, for the price point these are amazing solid wheels, I've been talking to them about maybe bringing in a 11.5" rear for us to provide to my client bases, but well see what happens.

As for the caliper to barrel clearance 6+ is solid, the factory R provides 5mm if not mistaken.

Looking good. They definitely look better than I anticipated. Maybe I'll keep the Cup 2s on during the summer a bit. Thanks for posting the pic.

Bummer on the VS wheels. The signature wheels also look like a nice option. The price and weight of the Forgestars is a nice alternative.
The VS Forged wheels would have been amazing in the 19" especially with the one piece monoblock forged construction and reduced weight. In the meantime it's good to know that companies like Forgestar and Project 6GR have options available that will not break the bank and still provide the strength you need being able to handle the Shelby GT350.

Awesome color combo! Congrats! Forgestars are solid wheels. Nice touch on the bottom GT350 black banner! :headbang:

[MENTION=26409]User5.2[/MENTION] question out of curiosity one Shelby owner to another, why a 19x10 instead of a 19x11 ?

He said its for winter, wider is not better in the snow
That is very true! Don't know how well those 325 on the rears would do in snow. :thumbsup: Thanks for the info.
