          Yes they are. So if these are indeed Capri rims and you do the Aspire swap you wont be able to use them.

              I think those are fox body capri rims. As in RWD mustang sibling.

                  Those pre-date the FOX body Capris. They would be from the '70's German imported Capri (very cool) and I think they are indeed 4 on 4-1/2". The RWD backspacing may cause problems.

                    They are German Capri rims and they're worth much more than $100.00

                          If youre taking the Festiva you can just pull 1 of your wheels off and see how it fits. Id use some type of straight edge once you have it in place and check clearences front and back, inside and out.

                            thats what i plan on doing. i hope they fit!
                            found 4 175/50/13s for 47$ each. if they dont fit stock set up.
                            might still get them. not too into doing an aspire swap. but i like the rims.
