I was wondering if any of you knew if the rims off of a lug nuts off of a ford festiva matched the lug nuts off of a 90 pro. If so, this would be sweet. Also, do you think 18's would be ok or should i try 17's??? Also, since i'm already here, might as well ask whether you think i should use 2" exhaust or 2 1/4? I was thinking 2. what do you think?

im confused. are you asking if the pattern of the Festiva is the same as the Pro, or if the lug nuts are the same thread pattern? both are true, however, you wont be fitting 18's under the Pro,or Festiva for that matter. with 17's youll have to use a 40 series tires, or youll be scrubbing the strut base.

wrong forum, but use a 2" exhaust. anything larger is usually saved for turboed cars...

i kinda like that 2 im puting 2 on mine 2' but thats with turbo u know lol

with a turbo, you can go to a 2.5" pipe. thats what i am using on mine. :)

The pattern on the festiva was totally (well, not totally) different from my pro. Wheels wouldn't even come close to fitting. Damn, thought I had a cheap way of purchasing rims!
