Wheels and tires (not mine)...

[eturnl]

I was needing to know if these would fit my '89 Festy L without any mods? Aren't the Festy's bolt pattern a 4x114.3? Would the offset be too deep into the well or springs?
Either way this looked like a heck of a deal for new wheels and tires non-the-less.

festiva lug pattern is 4x114.3. But these are 15" rims as well. they'll technically fit but you need to do some more research on here for more variables, options, issues, etc.

Those would work regardless if you had the Aspire swap are not. That is a killer deal on wheels and tires man. Worse comes to worse you could get wheel spacers and Aspire struts and springs to raise the spring perch up

There are a few guys on here running 195/50R15s on 38 offset wheels. I don't know what all they had to do to get them not to rub, but they will definitely fit, but will take some modding to work without rubbing.

I was thinking about them for a while.

you will HAVE to use spacers in the rear (at least 10mm).

If he uses spacers in the rear - he may clear the strut perch, but always keep in mind the body rubbing the tire if you should have suspension travel.

2 spacers in the rear, gorrilla stud conversion, tuner nuts, fender roll in the rear. This is on FMS & kyb's. 195/*45*/15 and yes, they rub on a hard bump. (on the inner wheel well.

All 4 will rub? What's your offset?

[Kofkof_00]

only the rears. the offset is 40, but I had to put 2 spacers in the rear to clear the trailing arm.

I had 195/45-15 on 15x6.5" +38mm offset with no mods or spacers and NEVER RUBBED in a year of driving (sometimes hard backroad driving). It was close to rear arm but never hit. The 195/50's are nearly 10mm taller on top and bottom. It would have worked on my car. Stock Festy springs and non KYB struts. I don't know what the difference is between KYB's and a cheaper style strut is.

Lowers the car by about an inch or 2, depending on how loaded it is. Mine are 7" wide though
