  • Lift Kit

    I've been looking around on google, if it's possible if you can put a lift kit on a festiva. I was thinking 3-4 inch left, so I can put bigger tires on her. I got a 1992 L.
    Any suggestions, tips, etc...?

    Anything can be lifted, but there are no Festy lift kits. It will be a custom job. You can get an inch or two of lift by installing Aspire springs. The ride will be harsher tho.

      The trailer tires 185/80/13 sold at walmart made my aspire much taller. Like 8.9 percent difference on the speedo, something ridiculous LOL. When i was going 65 i was going over 70mph! Unfortunately the coil spring seperators and what not you find 9t pep boys are for larger diameter springs and won't work. I am not sure if you can get those same tires I used to fit on the festiva w/o the springs and shocks. If you can then its a huge difference, and i was able to take it on some light trails. FWD is great for this.

          Google 'donk' and get in contact with a shop or company that does these type of lifts.

                Kia Rio struts and springs bolt right in but your axles might not like the extra length. Destroyed my capri axle...
