      Had to cut the spring perch a little and have 5/16 spacer in the rear with longer studs

        Wow.....it amazing how big 195/50-15s look when they're on a Festiva. Did you lose a little power?

            Actually I went from 1757013 to 1955015 and they are almost identical. So I didn't really notice a power loss.

                  15's on a festiva is old news



                  But looks good either way :thumbright:

                  If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                    That's kinda what I was thinking. I would like to see someone mod a Festy by extending the wheel well openings farther up into the body, lowering it and then run some 15s or 16s. Basically, like the new(er) Mini.

                      I like the Caterpillar decal, looks to be a 218-4380 decal.
                      Did you get this from the Cat Dealer?
                      Aspires and Sways all around, Miata B6 installed, KYB G2Rs just installed in front. Wish for coil overs someday.

                              sorry for bringing this old post up again.

                              i'm just curious at how the perch was cut. pics is much better

                              i'm using 185/55/15 right now and already have spacers but the perch still rubs :cry_smile:
