The rims on your car are stock 89+ TII wheels without centercaps. They arent factory for your car.

You said " im ditching the tempo and fixing this car up." Before the 7, were you fixing up a FORD TEMPO???? Please tell me your werent!!

Make sure you pay heed to the stickies and FAQs at the top of this section. Also some simple searches for stuff like "reliability mods" will do you good in the long run.
