Center on the outside of the barrel 335 no spacers no issues Might have to trim the plastic behind the tire very slightly

Fronts (measured from brake rotor face to outside lip of wheel)
Stock = 9cm
Shelby = 10cm
Diff = +10mm

Rear (measured same)
Stock = 14cm
Shelby = 15.9cm
Diff = +19mm

Wheels stick out too far so I tried a modification which LocoBob suggested.
I put the center sections on the outside instead of the inside of the wheel joining surface. Center section fits like a glove on either side...

Here are the results:
Fronts (measured from brake rotor face to outside lip of wheel)
Stock = 9cm
Shelby w/mod = 9.3cm
Diff = +3mm

Rear (measured same)
Stock = 14cm
Shelby w/mod = 13.5cm
Diff = -5mm

I added my 1/4 inch spacer to the back:
Stock = 14cm
Shelby w/mod + 1/4 inch spacer = 14.4cm
Diff = +4mm

yes it is coming back to me now. I was looking for a 3/16's spacer and settled on the 1/4" sorry for the miscommunication of an 1/8" spacer. I know I swapped the Lug stud for ones threaded to the end to accommodate the spacer
