Shelby SS Wheel vs. Aloca?

[Dandy]

I thought that the Alcoa wheels were discontinued, however I found this website:

Gloss Black Shelby Super Snake Wheel 20X10 05-2011

that has a set called the "Shelby Super Snake Wheel".

Is there a difference and does anyone know if these rims are limited to the size tire they will accept, like the Alcoas? I would like to be able to keep the stock size tires at the least, if not go a little wider in the rear.

Thanks

It is the same wheel. Some places call it Super Snake because that is the model Shelby the came on. Looking at those prices, I'm glad I bought mine when I did.

same wheel. supposedly Cruizin Concepts bought out the remaining supply on those rims and raised the price

Oh, I thought that it was a good deal. Now I see that is the price for one rim...

Looks like I'm not getting those.

Oh you thought it was a set of 4?

The good people at Tasca sold me a set for the same price. I think I purchased the last full set. They arrive tomorrow. epper:

Shelby just powder coated them black. I had a friend who bought the original wheels 2 years ago as well. Then bought the black ones to find out they were just powder coated lol. We still make fun of him for that one..good to know ill be able to sell these for more then I bought em for or at least break even! that doesn't seem to happen much with used parts
