  • Trying to figure out if these would fit..

    I need some new tires for my festy, and I saw this post on craigslist


    Normally I run 145/80/R12, which cost me about $35 a tire + $12 for balancing..which would be about $175 before taxes (12%). But I'm wondering if these would fit on there. I'm keep forgetting if the Festy bolt pattern is 4x100 or 4x114.3 though..

    Thanks in advance

          Someone should really put together some kind of wheel list.

          Like this, perhaps.

          Discuss improvements to your Festiva or Aspire in the handling, braking, wheels and tires areas.

            so, then if i read that list right, these will fit?

              ^^ With the proper amount of modding, anything will fit.

                I checked that, but it's confusing, because it says:
                Code:
                1993-88 Ford- Festiva 12 x 4 40mm offset
                
                1993-91 Ford- Festiva 12 x 4.5 40mm offset
                So apparently my 91 Festiva has both 4x4.5(114.3) and 4x4(100). That's the only reason why I asked.

                  That's not the bolt pattern, it's the wheel width (4" or 4.5" wide).

                    Print out the list and go to the JY to find compatible 13" wheels. I'd look first at Metro wheels (make sure they are 13" not 12"--early ones were 12s). They might even have some decent tires on them.
