Hey all,

Before Christmas my dad sold his 2003 10th Cobra and My moms 2011 GT to order a 2018 GT with a new roushcharger. only thing he didn't like was the track pack came with the black wire spoke wheels. While i was down visiting them in phoenix from Canada. We went wheel shopping. We couldn't be happier with the results.

Wheels are Rotary forged Variant "kyptons" 20x9/20x10.5 with 265/35's and 305/35's . Wheels are made in house at Elements Wheels in Chandler, AZ. The owner Rob and our sales rep Colin were top notch. They custom machine the offset for a perfect fit. I think they turned out amazing. Now all we are waiting for is the tvs 2650 roush kit to be released and then my parent have the best of both my dads cobra and my moms GT. Can't wait to see how the supercharger feels with the 10 speed.

Came in here hoping I didn't see another set of black wheels. You nailed it!
Sharp looking Roadster & the wheels compliment it very well.
Good choice!

Yes everyone is doing black wheels on these cars even ford haha. Here is the car stock it’s like night and day the difference. I gotta say after driving my dads 18 for a week with the 10 speed I am really tempted to sell my cobra and do a turbo setup on a coupe. I think it would scream.

Damn those look good. I think the color fits the wheels really nicely

Wheels look sharp on there, think it just needs a slight little bit more low. Maybe like 1/2"




Hey now, lets not get carried away here alright? :D

My dad is 72 years old he Isn’t lower nothing. he was so worried about rubbing that buying these wheels alone were stressful enough. Haha

Looks good! The 18s are growing on me. I was never a big fan of the 15-17... but something about the 18 looks more aggressive.
