    Do you know what a crush nut or a castellated nut looks like?

    If not, get us a pic posted up and we'll go from there.

        Great pic!

        At least there was plenty of grease and it appears new!

        Need to scrap off some of the grease, so we can see what kind of fastener you have.
        Save the grease in the cap so as not to get dirt in it, so you can put it back later.
        I assume you have no bearing grease available currently.

        Also see if you can get a pic from behind the drum.

        We are looking to see how the backing plate is mated to the rear beam.

        Of course making sure the car is on jack(s) stand and NOT just a jack.

              OK, you do have a castellated nut held on with a cotter pin.

              This is good news from one stand point.
              It means you can remove the drum and put it back on without needing anything else.

              I wanted the pic from the back hoping to spot if the rear beam had been drilled to accept the Aspire drum.
              No go on that.
              Just want to be sure what we have here. Can you measure center hole to center hole diagonal across the spindle to see if we can confirm this is a Aspire drum, mm would be best but we can convert inches if that what you've got.
              Like the first image below:

                          Uh, now I'm confused.

                          As william said:

                          Aspire = 100mm
                          Festiva = 114.3 mm

                          Try measuring the bolt holes in the wheel, maybe the spindle protruding put you measurement off.

                              OK, so your drum and wheel are 100 mm, so it is Aspire.
