Default Big Brakes under A Molds

What is the best set of brakes to use with the factory Wheels?

I'm looking at this kit and I think it will work, but they don't seem to offer anything for the rear.

You'll need to confirm the hub offset which shows as .88" on the spec sheet.
Can these be used w stock rotor?

That's what I am running on my front of my 91 with 17s Fikse FM-5s. I know you can run the C5 brake upgrade under a set of A Molds. I'm 90% certain that will fit under factory A Molds as the guy I bought my set from was running them behind factory sawblades and I believe the sawblades are tighter than A molds.

However your mileage may vary. GC

You would need to go with the street shop upgrade with the DPC56 C5 direct replacement 4 piston wilwoods for a stock C5 rear. If you want to retain your parking brake

The registry has a group buy going on on the street shop upgrade at the moment in the registry only section

No they can't. However the kit he is planning on using or buying comes with the SRP Wilwood drilled and slotted rotors as a part of the kit. It identical to my kit on my 91

That is an readily available kit. Actually is was never offered as a kit. Assuming it is on your callaway it was created by them. Do you have any pictures?
