  • Rebel racing wheels

    Would these wheels I found on ebay fit the festiva without rubbing?


    Is that a good offset or will that wear out bearings.

        I think you would eat up your bearings with that offset... most people on here run between 35 and 40 offset I believe..

          Well I was asking for my brother. He is wanting them for his truckstiva. I think they look way cool. I though about them for my LX.

            Here is some that look like mini truck wheels.




            These are what I want for my LX.



            Nice lip and a stout looking design.

              My rims are similar to those. I got them at Discount Tire. They order them from Unique Wheels. I got 14"ers for $53 each. The rims and tires out the door---$468.

                The boxy style ford ranger had wheels very similar to those in the first post. I like them, but I'd have to see them on a festiva before actually saying I would like it.

                    they'll push outside the fenders. for that rim, i'd go +30 at the MOST and +38 at the minimum. (-) offset numbers place the mounting surface to the inside of the wheel centerline, pushing the face of the outside lip OUT, (this is harder on bearings and will cause fender issues).

                    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 looked at some 13 x 5.5s today that were a 38 offset. So you're saying that they'll work? They don't have that size on display so I can't measure the backset to be sure. the old Datsun wheels I'm running now are 13 x 5s and they measure the same as the stock wheel from inside wheel lip to hub face.
