Good sawblades, especially the 93s (machined) seem to fetch above 1k. All the ones I could find were in the $1000 - $1800 range. Ended up with less-than-perfect set for $400, which incl. shipping refurbishing would add up to approx. $1100.

A-mold is cast in the rims.

thanks
now i recall reading (i think in the sticky over at corvetteforum?) that the A molds had the best clearance for brake mods
recently while doing a search i came across two post that stated the 1990 fronts has the most clearance and the wilwood brake kit fit with no clearance issues.

the reason why i ask is that i am contemplating a brake upgrade.... not sure what i want to do and don't want to box myself it by buying a set of wheels i dont need.

The rear, '93 machined-face sawblades have to be among the most rare Corvette wheels. After about a year of intense searching, I paid $2,500 for a new still-in-the-box set of four '93 ZR-1 wheels about five years ago and have no regrets. The fronts are common to all '93's and a little more accessible, but the wider rears are a different story.

A mold can accommodate 13" rotors and wilwood superlite narrow 6 piston and/or 4 piston calipers.

see my other thread.
so will not fit with the 1990's ?
i came across a thread stating the 90s had the most room.

You will need to have some open five or six spoke wheels to show off your new big brakes!
