are these JY Capri wheels worth it?

[F3BZ]

ran into this XR2 at the JY yesterday. mostly complete except for T-charger. these wheels are OEM 15x6. decent shape. 2 are missing center caps. yard wants $30 ea. any demand for these?

More demand for the fog lights than the wheels. Those 3 spokes look kinda cool on a Festy though. FordFester used to run them on his car. There is 1 center cap right now in ebay.

Are you wanting XR2 trubo wheels?

I like the shaved look. Lugnuts are ugly. So are bolts.
I like rounded curves. I like ...

Hey I used to run them too! Way back in my B6T days.

15" a little overkill for me. just thought i'd see if someone wanted them i could grab em. i bought the G trans from the car. been looking for one close to me for years. took the intercooler too. i was surprised that 1/2 of it was blocked from airflow by the capri bumper reinforcement. i wonder how much cooling it coulda been doing.

In theory the whole thing is getting air regardless if it's directly exposed or not. The whole front bumper is one high pressure zone at speed and everything should get equal flow as long as it's not directly covered, like a piece of tape or some grass or mud in the fins.

i can't argue with the engineer who decided to mount it there. still, fully half of it is behind a solid fiberglass reinforcement with about 1/2" of space between the 2. the point is moot though. i bought it to see if i could get any gains in the hack job B6T into festiva install that my uncle gave to me after he was tired of it. he didn't install an intercooler and reused the 1.3 exhaust pipes so i figure there's still some power to be unleashed.

Those center caps are worth more than $30 ea on the used market

thanks RM. i might pop em off my next trip. i often wonder how many rare or highly sought after parts i pass up in U Pull Its of various makes and models. not just festivas. we all know what parts to grab there. i think a person with very broad knowledge of these rare or special edition or 1 year only parts could make a nice secondary or even primary income. especially if you had the time and means to travel. myself, i know i'd be cruisin JYs in FLA right now if i could.
