Where to Buy Optional BBS Wheels?

[Imatk]

So I guess Ford doesn't sell these wheels anymore?

Anyone know where I can get two fronts?

Ford dealers still sell them it's just that Ford Racing no longer carries them.

I'm in Austin, TX but I can pay to ship if you have some wheels to sell.

Gentlemen,

I bought 4 brand new front BBS lightweight Ford GT front wheels to put on my Shelby GT Mustang with Hoosier R-6s. They are GREAT Mustang wheels with perfect offset, 5 lbs lighter per wheel than stock, 1/2 inch wider than stock, forged and super strong, and they will clear any big brake package. At over $1000 per wheel they are a bit pricey but good stuff.

Ray,

Will do as soon as I get them on. Right now the 4 wheels are sitting in unopened boxes next to the car. I'm ordering the Hoosier R-6s from Tire Rack and will have them mounted as soon as they arrive. Unlike the GT, the Shelby GT/SC has traction control and even with the stock tires the combination of positraction, T/C, and the 3.55 rear axle ratio produces mind blowing acceleration for a 4 seat car that V-10 M-6s, Carreras, Corvettes, and a host of other high performance cars can't match. It's a fun, inexpensive, sleeper. Acceleration up to about 35 MPH is limited by traction and the Hoosiers will make an improvement there. Brakes are also weak and the stock wheels won't clear anything but stock calipers. The FGT wheels will allow Brembos to be used up front. I'll post pictures soon.

Excellent, could I trouble you to post a picture a bit more from the side? Thanks.

I have an older pic that's shows a bit more of the side, but I don't have a perfect side shot.

These look great on the Mustang. I had a Saleen this same exact color and wish I had it back. Enjoy. Chip, lets see yours when you get them on.

Sorry for the thread revival. But can these still be purchased? How much are we talking for the set?
