They fit with my A molds.

I've never tried before but I don't think they will work with the sawblades or salad shooters.

You are correct, won't work with 90-93 wheels. Gotta have that 56mm offset of amolds or aftermarket.

All stock wheels have the same offset. The difference is the amount of clearance at the caliper. The 91 wheel has less clearance than the 94/95 wheel. I don't know about the 90 wheel ...

And I refuse to call any part of a ZR-1 "salad shooter" - that's just wrong.

Yes, I confused issues. Not the offset that limits but 90-93 wheels will not clear big caliper systems.

This stuff is too rich for my blood. But I was just wondering, is this the Baer kit #4301014? The 14" rotors will fit under A-molds?

Just going through some old post and ran across this one.

Wow, what would you say if I told you these MovIt's cost $12.5K per axle??? Just making conversation.

I am sure they do. These are the ceramics the rotors they weigh 50% of what the steel rotors do and they never wear out. No fade, no matter how hot they get.

Why would someone put $25,000 brakes on a $25,000 ZR-1?

Way overkill and quite silly to be honest. 6 piston BAERS rock and with the money you save over the movits, you can buy another daily driver ZR-1

Not knocking the system, its awesome but $25,000? Maybe if it was $100,000-$150,000 car.

Maybe if I were making a living racing...not sure about a car that spends 80% of the time in the garage, 19% of the time on the street, and 1% or less of the time on a track.
