  • Festiva's 13" Rims? Factory option?

    I was researching 13" rims on the Web, when I ran across Capital Wheels.com. They seem to imply the Festiva wheel option include 13"x4" 12-hole rim w/ 114.3mm x 4 bolt pattern. Spare tire?

    I though the Festiva's only came with 12" rims. The Aspire's came with 13" rims but different size bolt pattern'

    Am I wrong? Maybe they screwed up?

        13" I believe is the factory spare. Been a while since I've looked at one but I think the tire size was around 125/70/13.
        No festiva for me ATM...

            Alloys in the States are 12" In Europe they were 13". The factory spares were all 13"

              I looked at that site and they list the 13 X 4" spare wheel as "styled." Well, if they mean 'styled like a doughnut spare" then yep, that's what it looks like. However, their picture shows a styled 12" wheel, which is wrong. Their weights for the wheels are probably all wrong too, since I've weighed my Aspire alloys at 13 pounds and they list it at 17 or 18. Nope. Their weights may include the shipping box and filler.

              I also don't know why they have an Aspire style 13" plastic wheel cover on the Festiva page. They need to redo their site. I wonder how many other mistakes they make.

                I have a feeling the GTX/GTA's came with 13's from factory

                1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
                1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
                2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

                1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

                If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
