Hi all,

Be advised, I expect these wheels in the attached auction (eBay No. 374524031957) by MustangMasters428 of  fame are actually the Mopar wheel with the near 4 inch backspacing.  The seller was clever to not provide well images to confirm 100%, but the two attached images outlining the differences suggest Mopar.  A fellow SAAC member and I sent a note to the seller about the back spacing with no reply, further suggesting Mopar.  If they were legit, the seller would have included the back spacing dimensions.  He has too much other details to not include, unless deliberately absent.

Get the back spacing from the seller as 3.375 before even considering these wheels.  Then there are the condition issues to consider.

Hope this helps.

Cory

You suspect correctly. They look like Mopar wheels to me too. Fast Freddy has been known to pull shenanigans in the past all the while quoting bible scripture when you interact with him. Not a surprise at all.

I have dealt with him in the Past, a Con Man for sure.  He advertised a Distributer that a friend was thinking about buying.  I told him to RUN as fast as possible in the other direction from Fast Freddie that he will screw you for sure.  About a Month later he told me he received the Distributer and it wasn't even CLOSE to what was Advertised, not even for his Mustang.  It took him a while to get his Money back.

https://www.virginiaclassicmustang.com/66-GT350-SHELBY-CHROME-MAGNUM-500-WHEEL-14-X-6-P244282.aspx?ItemId=70803 - These are the only that I know of.  A while back they were not available.  I don't know if they are available now or not.  Contact Brant to be sure.   


https://www.virginiaclassicmustang.com/66-GT350-Shelby-Magnum-500-Wheels-Unpainted-Set-of-5-P482619.aspx - Unpainted wheels here, but no price, so I assume they are not available.
