What is LCA?

Like before it's the Lower Control Arm... and I assume you may be curious to if yours are going bad or not.

Some common symptoms include a wobble at 50 or so MPH give or take also a bit of a shimmy when you are coming to a stop. When it gets bad there can be popping sounds and groaning.

Atleast that's what I've found in my cars.

Regardless it's a pretty cheap fix and is better to do sooner than later or you will eat through your tires like me! Or worse!


I will be getting my alignment done tomorrow! Only put 40 miles on the tires so no wear on the tire. It took over 7,000 miles to show anything on my $17 tires haha.

Here are the other rims I got they are 14's also but have are 4x100 pattern. One of the rims is painted Red which would look pretty sweet on the right festy.... Just not mine IMO. The pictures look bad, and the red rim had dust on it but it looks brand new.

how wide are those rims would they fit on a totally stock festiva without rubbing?
and what did they come off of?

[Charlie1717]

I'm not 100% on how wide they are but they would not fit on a stock festy since it is the 4X100 and not the 4x114, these fit with the aspire brake swap. They won't rub. The other rims from the first post don't rub either. The 15's I have rub a bit if you hit a bump.


I don't know yet what rims I will be keeping and selling yet, but I need cash to fund the B6t swap.

ahhh didn't pay attention to the 4x100 in there
drat i can never find any decent wheels that fit the stock pattern and really don't know how to swap everything for the aspire stuff

Yeah I've just been riding on 13" steelies. Until the fronts wore down from the bad alignment.

[LoneManWolf]

well i'm riding around on stock 12" lol which are really crappy and hard to find tires for
though the ones i have have brand new tires so it'd be a while before i change them out even if i find some bigger rims/tires to fit it

Well what I would do is just get some 13" steelies from the junk yard less than $15 a rim (plus sometimes you can find decent tires on them too) Then you will have alot more choices for tires. Then just use those until you find the rims you really want. After you are through the 12's of course!
