    Current Project car: '90 Festiva, 5 speed. Stock everything, basic package, 200K miles.
    I've hit on all your stickies/ links and continually get this : Not Found

    The requested URL /forum/viewtopic.php was not found on this server.
    Apache/2.0.52 (CentOS) Server at www.fordfestiva.com Port 80.

    Mainly, just wanted the link to the cars that were listed having bolt patterns that will matchup w/ the Festiva's bolt patterns. 12's are too rare out this way and even the spare donuts-(please laughout loud for me, as I've desperately used all four found on my cars)- are as rare too. 13" tires are still plentiful around here, but after changing up my computer all my ref's were/still on my XP pro computer.
    Any help here is welcomed as well as the lol in my face, geeze just want to keep my clowncar running.

          Guys, the links seem to be out-dated but the threads are still there. Try this to fix the urls:

          1. Rename 'forum' to 'forums'.
          2. Rename 'viewtopic' to 'showthread'.

          Edit: These seem to go to the wrong threads. :S
          Make that x7.
