Re: shelby wheel owners question
I am running:
285/35R18 Front 335/30R18 Rear I have Pirelli Tires I have the centers of the wheels bolted on the outside of the barrel so I run a 1/4" spacer in the back. if you leave them assembled as stock (centers on inside) no spacers needed I am using C4 Stock lug nuts with C5 Chrome caps, but have the tabs of the C5 caps removed

Re: shelby wheel owners question
F: 275/35R18 Falken Azenis
R: 335/30R18 Toyo R888R Would have gone R888R front & rear, but Discount said the front R888Rs weren't rated appropriately for the load rating of the car. Bolted right up, no spacers needed. I'm using locking nuts supplied by Discount Tire. The gent I bought the wheels from had included some custom locking nuts, but I had to replace as the key was twisted. The new ones are smaller diameter, which works better to give a little extra clearance around the socket, and allows the supplied socket/key to fully enclose the lug nuts when installing/removing. Here's a few pics of fit. The fronts are right in line with fender edge with the 275s, the rears stick out slightly with the 335s:

Was going to sell mine because I bought a set of Fiske but just bought another z and I think I will be putting them on that car. The face on my wheels are on the outside and they bolt right on no spacer was needed. Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry
