    New shoes for Bruce



    Yea, there ugly. But they are only $40. I have a full susp swap in the works
    Rio front knuckles and struts w/ honda progressive springs
    Aspire rear bar w/honda springs.
    I am gonna start pulling parts together this weekend before my SOLO meet.

    I do have a question i could not answer w/search.

    Will I need spacers for this set up?

    Not knowing the wheel width or offset no one can guess for you. Bolt them on and you'll know right away. But if they have to be spaced out you may have issues with rubbing on the fenders.

        The wheels will bolt on fine once you do the brake swap, but the tires you choose might be an issue if they are too tall and wide. With the Aspire rear Monroe strut you will get another 5/8" or so of clearance, allowing 185/60x14 tires for example.

          Capri wheels have the same offset and I had to run spacers on the rear with mine.

            I like them. Classic Mini-Lite styling...paint the centers gold (or any color that compliments your car) and leave the wheel lips polished aluminum.

                Daisies look great painted up like the one on the bottom right! Also look good with the smooth part of the each spoke masked along with the lip for 7 silver spokes. One of these days I'm going to paint the ones on the Miata, if I don't break down and buy some 205/40R16s for the Enkei RP01s I have. I'd probably paint the whole wheel yellow to match the car, then mask the lip and smooth strip on the spokes and flat black the rest
                No festiva for me ATM...
