What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[Spike]

^I had tires with 44psi max, I had filled to 40. Went for an oil change at.. I think Midas.. and they told me my tires were 'way over-filled' and 'dangerous'.

I lol'd so much.

Hehe. I'm crazy.

I run 50 or so on these stamped @40.

Turns so much easier on pavement. I do a lot of parking lot driving, 50-60 times I'll Park. No power steering, every psi helps.

I also dialed my fuel pressure down to 39 from 40lbs.

On the long drive to madness
I noticed when floored it would bog slightly

So the drop in 1lb
Helped lean things out a bit.
Now at wot it doesn't go too rich.
At least that's what my butt dyno says.

Navdoc....it did happen....not real attractive with the two materials....but thats an easy fix. You likey?

LOL, I like the Backs with the holey headrest. Now swap the same cushions in. You don't like the red stripes? I always thought the Sort interior was rare.

tires don't wear funny with that psi

tires don't wear funny with that psi

Even wear from shoulder to shoulder. Fronts round, naturally, but back tires after 20,000 miles wear even across, so it's apparent a bit of over inflation is OK. If your mounting skinnies on fatties you'll probably upset the shoulder. Cheap tires that are less ply, they may balloon on the center I'm not sure, possibly if fatties on skinnies as the center will rise outward. . I stay at least 3ply on face if I over inflate a fuzz.

Trucks 8/10 ply, trailers 16/18 ply on sides.
But all I run is 8bolt/FF...... So it's basically a set standard in my book.

I run about 40PSI front and 38PSI rear on my Stivas. Never had funny wear due to inflation.

I run my truck tires (265/75R16 BFG All Terrain) at 70PSI and get a hint of center wear on the rears. Rotation cures that.

Navdoc.....Not a big fan of the restripe stuff...i like the seperate head rests and yes the holy ones are cool, but hard to find, these were hard enough to come across/I got lucky....I've got someone asking for the red stripe stuff already...not sure if its rare or not.
I love this little car. Take care...Mark

The red sport interior is rare and you could probably sell it pretty easy. I'm guessing you might already have PMs with people inquiring!

Escort dome light, finally. First successful application for a Festiva.

It's nice having a light in the darn car. :p

Now, go to AZ, get the LED upgrade light, HUGE improvement!

[Prafeston]

The Escort dome light with map lights is such a great easy cheap upgrade!

I've always ran mine around 1 or 2 psi under max @sidewall. It allows for better performance especially on a lower profile tire. The 32 is just recommended for a "comfy" ride per what people who install tires think they know
