Actually the white pinstripes are reflective, same goes for my orange stripes on mine. All of them are reflective in color
Very cool I did not know this.
I loved the stripes on my dad’s Boss 302 LS the grey on black.

Unfortunately I just tried to test this in my home garage and no luck on reflective unfortunately.
At least definitely not anything like the Boss 302 and I didn’t really see any reflection in my test (dark garage with/without LED Light.

That's odd, the orange on mine 100% is reflective and I figured the rest were as well. It's a little hard to make out unless you're at the right angle or the light is hitting it right in my experience.

Answer: they fit!
This is before dealer clean up.
Picking up Saturday due to work.

Hello,
I have a 2017 Convertible Mustang Ecoboost Premium with the OEM 20" rims. Wheels size 20" X 9", bolt pattern 5 X 4.5, offset 42.5MM for all four wheels. I have 265/35/20 in the front. And I upgraded the rear tires to 295/40/20. and they fit perfectly and still have a lot of space (like 4" towards the shocks). I bought the OEM 2020 Shelby GT500 wheels (Front wheels size 20" x 11", offset 32MM and rear wheels size 20" x 11.5". offset 50MM) I know the front would rub, but I will change the tires to 275/40/20. For the rear tires, the wheels I bought need two new rear tires. I would like to put 345/30/20 (they fit the rim width perfectly based on the Bridigstone Website). Would the Shelby GT500 wheels with 275/40/20 in the front and 345/30/20 in the back fit my car?
Thank you.

try taking photos in opposite side angles to capture the effect, the reflective material does not appear to be hi-vis. below are a couple photos i found from other posts, ck it.
