  • Aspire Front Springs, Festiva Fronts In The Rear

    OK i've been searching up a storm but I can't find it. I like the way my car sits now. If I remember correctly putting the front festiva springs in the rear and aspire fronts up front keeps about a stock level with stiffer rates correct?

    IIRC you have to take a coil out of the rears...
    Trees aren't kind to me...

    currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
    94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

      I dont know how many coils you need to take out for stock hight but I run this combo with 2 1/2 coils cut all the way around. Yes this will provide a stiffer ride. Heres a pic of my ride hight with 185/65/14s. I run a 185/60/14 now but will be going to a 195/50/15 soon.

      And no it doesnt rub.

        Did you have to roll your fenders for that tire size? I'm wanting to run that size because its easier to find tires for. Is your speedometer corrected?

          I rolled them a little. I dont think it changed the speedo much. I havnt been pulled over for speeding yet.
