Not exactly Ansens, but I got some Shelby Cal 500 in 4x130 VW patern and 5,5x15".
I can't wait to receive them !
You can find some infos about it there

(in the custom wheels guide).
Some pics I picked-up on the internet :

I receive them !
They are in very good shape, just need a cleaning and I will see if they need a little re-polish or not, or if I keep them in their nice "patina".
As it's a set of 2, I'm officially looking for 2 others !
But waiting for that I will mount those 2 at the rear, and for the front I'll keep the BRMs or install centerline/erco style, or maybe some Flat4 Enkei flat dish. I will also install some home-made center caps, unless I have the chance to find og ones !

Today I tried the wheels on the car. They fit perfectly for the rear, but it's not ok for the front : first they have a very high offset and tires will be out of the fenders (and rub), and they rip on the disk brake caliper just where there's the brake piston, so impossible to remove some material there.
That resolve my problem for finding 2 other Shelby wheels, but now I have to choose other front wheels. My first choice is Flat4 Enkei's flat dish, as they have the same design and look very closely like the Shelby. Some Centerlines would be nice but it's too much "racing" in my opinion. That's the only 2 options that will fit perfectly I think.

Yep I think I will go with this, I like their style. And the "flat profile" they have for the front will look great with the "concave profile" of Shelbys for the rear. I'll try tomorow to draw you the mesures I need for the center caps.

How it will look. The Cal 500 on the rear will have Enkei five spokes' center caps, but before that I have to make them shine.

Thanks !
I need some help about the bolts for the Shelbys. On the wheels I have 3 "flat" holes and 1 "conic" hole to center the wheel. It's ok for the conic hole but I want to know what kind of bolt I need for the 3 flat holes, is it the same as Centerlines or Ercos ?
