14x7

[Thebrandonbeezy]

Looking at cheap rims and the steel circle track stuff always comes to mind. Found a set in 14x7 with a 4 inch back space.
Will this work ?
I dont mind stretching/rolling fenders, but i seem to recall issues with the rear strut saying hello to the rim on some cars.

So it has a +25 mm offset?

That would possibly fit, but 7" is a hard fit with stock suspension

ill be doing some sort of coil over. ima assuming ill need camber in the rear?
im not sure on offset in metric terms, just has listed as 4in back spacing

If you are going with coilovers, the Advanced Suspension setup is pretty much the only way to go. I believe a 14x7 +25 will fit with that setup, but I would ask Charlie (Advancedynamix) to be sure.

And I would also suggest getting a set of Camber spacers to go with your wheels no matter what, as it really helps the performance overall.

I ordered a set of circle track hoops for a Chevy truck project once... they weren't even close to round. I doubt a set would work on a Festiva without a ton of wheel shake.

They did mention Off road Use only on the website, along with the fact that it can't be balanced on a conventional machine...

John makes an excellent point, Festivas are very sensitive to out-of-round wheels.

What draws you to the D hole steelies in particular over a different wheel choice?

[Thebrandonbeezy]

A few reasons, ive always liked the d window, my grandpas f100 had them.
Theyre cheap
Come in multiple sizes and offsets

I could see that for sure because theyre so light, which makes me wonder do you remember what brand you bought? My cusin ran Bassetts on his chevelle crew cab with no out of round problems so I'd probably only get them as thats what i have experienced in person

[Thebrandonbeezy]

Also, a lot of the wheels that I end up liking are only available in fifteens or larger. The more I look at cars with fifteen's on them the less I like them. They look good with a little bit of tire on them

[Thebrandonbeezy]

Well I can't say that I don't like all festivas the have fifteen's because they're definitely some that I really do like

You can get legit street use steelies, 14x5.5 Dual bolt pattern ET35 for $38 a piece, and have much less issue with both fitment and balance.

[Thebrandonbeezy]

Didn't someone on here just buy a set of the ones you mentioned??

[w4rkry]

I know at least one person posted about it on the facebook page.

[Thebrandonbeezy]

What size tires would you run on that, 165/45??
