If you have pics please post. Red Cobras be perfect but I won't be too picky :-D

also I am looking for as much information on increased weight of wheels and tires? How much heavier then stock? What's the stock size of tire of said 05 to 09 Shelby?

Ill effects? Poor ride quality, longer turning circle? Like to know all I can both positives and negatives.

The offset and backspacing on them is different. They work but they won't "fit right" in the wheel wells.

20" Razors, 1/4 spacer in front, 1-1/4" spacer in rear. Rubs a little up front when turned all the way

This photo is with no spacer in rear, I've since added 1.25" spacer, i'll add a pic of that later, but you get the idea

The ride quality is a little more stiff than the 18's I had. Handling feels like its on rails but a little more sensitive to steering wheel input. Braking is way better. I got the Razors cheap and I plan on chaging the tire sizes when it's time for new ones. I think it's currently at 255/35-20 all around. Wider in rear and maybe drop to a 245 in front. These are more unforgiving with potholes and such

True. I had a buddy put his "bullit" rims from his stock 05 Mustang to my '95 and the wheels stuck in like 4" inside the fenders.

Here are some other options when it comes to cheap wheels.
