My intentions were nothing but good!!!

Hey guys!! It's been a while for me to be on Here. I have done some rims shopping thrigh the local classifieds and pulled the trigger on these babys. Now



Now I know the offset is a little out there, but I was wondering if I could get some body to roll my fenders to correct my lapse in judgement, as for the tires they are 195/50/15 on 7 inch wide rims with fms springs, not sure on offset though,





I guess worst case sanario is make some fender flares??

Any one have any suggestions??

I don't think rolling the fenders can make up for that much offset. But if you want to try just use a baseball bat and torch.

You need a set of these! http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=37523

Thats what I was thinking! I love small compacts with flares

[blitzbuggy]

Also it would be possible to machine down the back side of the wheel hub correct??

[91_festy_Gl]

Yeah a machinist should be able to do it so that its machined down level and not to the point where the metals integrity is compromised. If its not done right, there will be a bad vibration.

I'm not sure how much they should take off depends on the back spacing huh

what car is that in the background?

what car is that in the background?

Gonna take a guess.

Olds cutlas?

[Nerd Racing]

if you machine them down with that tire size it will surely rub though, I doubt he has that much clearance.

[blitzbuggy]

Gonna take a guess.

Olds cutlas?

Ding ding ding!! 1970 477 Ci !!

Ding ding ding!! 1970 477 Ci !!

well thats what I was going to guess...but I was hoping for PICS!!!! considering even before the Festy it is my FAVORITE car. I had a 68 with a built 455....I miss that car!

[blitzbuggy]

I think I will end up doing the fender flares though looks promising!!

Either that or I will ditch the rims and keep the tires, I like the Mitsubishi oz rally rims

[festyfreak39]

those wheels are AWESOME!!!! get a set of flares and call it a day.

[DriverOne]

Those are Enkei 92's! At least, I'm very certain they are... I'd love to have them if you're going to get rid of them. Hell, I might straight up trade you depending on what you want/paid. I've got a set of 14x6" Enkei BAT2's in gold mesh with the polished lip... Of course, the tires stay with me...
