Default Shelby GT500 wheels

I have developed the hots for a set of GT500 wheels. I have the stock polished 18x9 in. Bullitts on my car now.
My question is- Does anyone know the backspacing and offset on the Shelby's? I have the choice of 6.2 or 7.2 inch backspacing and 23 or 50 mm offset. I don't know which way to go and don't want to get them sticking out too far.
I plan to remove one of my wheels and do some measuring to figure out what I have now and would like to know what the Shelby's are for comparison. They will be 18x9.5 in.

Thanks.

Frank

The backspace is 7.125 but I'm still not sure on the offset.
