ISO : Front Sawblades
Looking to gather 4x front 8.5" sawblade wheels. Either finish is fine as long as it's a matching set. There's also one or two full sets locally to me too. I could agree to buy those and you wanted to then trade for the rear so you had 4x 9.5's. If anyone has a square 17x8.5 set of other replica wheels I might be interested too. Located around southeast PA. Thanks in advance.

There would be only one style of 'sawblade' available in the 8.5" variety. '93 to '95 machine finished. The painted were only done in 9.5 and of course 11" for the ZR-1.
4 X 8.5" factory A-molds or maybe a set of 9" five-spokes done for the Camaro!
I believe I still have 1 8.5" A-mold!

Good point. Forgot they didn't stagger them till later lt1's. My top 3 would be sawblades, C5 Z replicas, or C5 magnesiums probably. These aren't going on a corvette, so don't want to bother with fitting really big boy wheels/tires

I have two 8.5" sawblades off my '96 (left and right), but they've been chromed - not sure if you would be interested in those. I'm looking to get them out of my garage so they'd be pretty affordable if you want them. Located in CT and would have to ship, though.

Bump. Picking up a full set of sawblades tonight, supposedly very good condition. So anybody near southern PA want to trade their front 8.5's for a pair of 9.5's?

The trade for 9 1/2's I'd think should work well for 'both' participants. I'd post back after you have the 9 1/2's in hand. Very clean 9 1/2's would trade 'quickly'!!

Same idea, but a 2005 forester. The staggered wheels resulting in one decent fitting set of tires and one stretched drives of crazy, especially since it's awd thus I want to do it right and run square wheels/tires. I think C5 Z or C5 deep dish would look better actually, but replicas in 17x8.5 are basically non-existent anymore. So sawblades it is.

Thankfully I got a VERY good batch all cleaned up. So the two rears I have up for trade now. Or I'm still willing to just outright buy 2 fronts if anyone has them for sale.
