If you are unsure, look inside the wheel. They are stamped Left and right use only.

Saw a pic of a yellow 89 challange car in my newest Corvette Magazine and it has 9 miles on it. The blades are facing forward and I would think that the wheels are in the original position. But the 91-96 sawblades posted above are correct and they are mounted on my 86 the same.
