They will go on but you can not lower the car without some banging and rolling.
    wick is right - I bought a '90 LX from silverworm ( Shaun ) - great little car - and have since sold it to somethingclever ( John ). Shaun did all the work - the rims are 10.5" and the tires are Sumitomos - he used what looked like a 1/4" spacer on both sides and removed the quad shocks. You can't lower the car or it will rub - in fact, I recommend rolling the rear fender lips. Mine weren't rolled, but turning uphill sharply resulted in the low tire rubbing the wheel lip. There was minimal rubbing while driving in a straight line at speed over severe dips, but other than that I never had a problem. That's about all I can remember. I'm sure silverworm can tell you exactly how much pounding was required on the inner wheelhouses. Oh - I remember a tiny bit of rubbing on the exhaust pipe as well - but nothing serious. Good luck!
