Scott,
Is your car the white 289 mule? It had the Canaska red & green stripes?
I don't see why you would need to have custom rotors made...I would say check w/ Wilwood.
On my Contemporary 289FIA, I was running 15 inch PSE FIA wheels with a 12.19 inch rotor w/ a 1 inch vent and Wilwood SuperLite 4 piston calipers and everything cleared in the suspension just fine.
I would think if you ran the SuperLites with a 13 in. rotor provided by Wilwood, it should easily clear.
You may want to check w/ Phil at PSE or it may be on his website, but I know my 15 inch rims had an additional five degree dropoff on the back side of the rim intentionally to fit larger brakes, but that may have been isolated to the 15 inch wheels, not sure.
