John, a guy at the dyno yesterday told me he has two rear ZR1 rims (silver) with hardly any miles (if any) on them. He's looking for $600 for the two of them. (Seems kinda high, but i don't know what the true a-molds are going for right now.)

Re: (Mr Mojo)
Frank. Where can you get them for that price? Is it true that the 8.5 inch wheels are only made OEM and not as a reproduction. I have been unable to find them as a repro.

IF you don't go to Carlisle, you can give me or Frank or Dennis some cash and we can look for you.

Re: Looking for A Mold Wheels (REDGAR)
The AFS are rather good! They really aren't much different than an original...and don't WHACK you with the price originals do.
Good luck either way.
