oh and seeing it's under suspension and brake, i suppose you could've meant 13'' rims?

well you can't with the stock brakes, you will need to run spacers, or go back to smaller pre 91 brakes

just bolt them on, fwd style wheels will not fit, they need to be offset or spaced out, 13's will fit with 94 style brakes not 91

91 and older brakes will work with 13'' rims, while 92+ brakes will need 14in wheels to clear. This of course is with proper offset wheels in mind

Some of us want 13" brakes, others want 13" wheels............. oh, btw, I don't know off hand if 13's will fit........ I went the other way.

if a 13" will fit a 94 stock brakes it will clear a 3rd gen as the brakes are the exact same

yes,just mount them backwards so the rim sticks out from the fender. would look sick too.

i was honestly debating finding a set of 13" wheels for the rear for the track. should have no problem getting 13" wheels to clear the drums and its the next best thing to running skinnies/dummy wheels at the track.

Actually i didn't think it's so stupid to ask why somone wants to do a mod to their car. Everyone else was bashing and i wanted to know why he wanted to put 13's on his car. Does he have air ride, hydo's, or just a slammed car? But I guess that's just to stupid to understand why i asked that. Oh well, gotta love the org!
