Hey I'm looking for a list of a the wheels that fit a stock 89 from any other makes and models. Or a link to that list thank you. I'm about to hit up the JYs to find some

Go back to the home page and look in the custom suspension, brakes, and wheels forum. It's at the top of the page.

The list is helpful but not entirely accurate it also doesn't note which wheels are hub centric and fit festiva hubs.I ended up with two sets of 13's one set fits the bolt pattern but not the hub but the geo metro wheels fit like they were made for the car.buy em bolt em on they even use the festiva lugs

We've had this debate many times. Hub-centric doesn't matter! What centers the wheel is simply the lug bolts (or studs/nuts). Once two are on, the wheel is centered. Otherwise the aftermarket wheels (none of which are hub-centric) would cause problems, and they don't.

For thicker aluminum aftermarket wheels, you do need lug bolts with a longer tapered section, to better grab the wheel. Stock lug bolts are too short in the taper, and the wheel will vibrate at hwy speeds. I've converted my Festy and Aspire to screw-in studs and lug nuts, far more convenient.

Great! Do they have good tires?

Good enough. Save up for some high-quality, long-wearing tires, like my current all-around faves: General Altimax RT43. They come in a 175/70-13.

Here you go: General Altimax RT43 175/70-13 from www.tires-easy.com. I've bought plenty of tires from them, with consistent good service/fast delivery. Just get a local shop to mount and balance. The small general auto repair shops are more willing to do this; don't go to the tire places. Figure ~$50 to dismount the old tires, mount/balance the new ones.

There is more to hub centric and lug centric than just centering the wheel.With a hub centric wheel impact loads are transferred to the hub rather than the lugs themselves.Some,not all aftermarket wheels are hubcentric. I will remove and replace at least 40 wheels this week at work and 90 percent will be a snug fit on the hub.I leave the engineering of the vehicles to the engineers that designed the vehicles. In my 30 years as working as a tech I have learned many times the engineers usually know what they are doing and may have reasons we are unaware of.
