  • info on Festy wheels

    I'm looking to go to 13 inch wheels on my 93 . What would be a good pick at a salvage yard? Not too concerned with the in style wheels, something decent at a reasonable price. Thanks for any info

    There's a list of all 114.8 bolt pattern wheels on here somewhere, just try searching..

    But off the top of my head, last-gen Geo/Chevy Metro 13's, Mazda 323 wheels (what I have on mine), and... some Honda Accords, I believe? There are several others, I just haven't taken the time to check.

    The tires I'm running are 155/80-R13s, got them at a Firestone tire shop for $16.99 each. I think $110 installed.. but your speedo will be 7% off (meaning if you're going 51.5 on the speedo, you're really going 55, ect.).

          ^EDIT:

          114.3, not 114.8.

          My mistake.

            Good sources for nice 13" wheels that will fit a stock festiva are Hyundai excel, older (boxy) nissan sentra, Dodge Colt and 1984/85 mazda rx7, as well as the previously mentioned bf 323. There are also some nice aftermarket alloy wheels that don't break the bank, MB motoring and Konig both have wheels for under $75 a wheel. Our salvage yards charge 35 a wheel here, so with the time invested in getting them (only to find that one is bent and they won't refund it) it is cheaper to just buy new wheels. lol.
            Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.
