while 19s are bigger than I'd mount on a protege, its HARDLY donk, and if you can live with the ride of 35 profile tires, it really doesn't look bad.

I don't think you know much about lowering, or how low my car is..............its plenty low enough to scrape on most driveway and crap here in Utah plus the 35s are barely larger in circumference than the stock wheels...just my 2 cents though. Thanks for the opinion.

(peep)
[ok, before you turn on me, the 3 has less than the 6i... and my 6 was lowered!]
This is the moderately low thread and those 19s fit into that category. I think they look good. The big wheels and small tires make the p5 look very sporty. The 19s I am putting on my 3 aren't going to make my car sit any higher but I won't clutter this thread with my car since it doesn't really qualify as moderately low.
Actually the hell with it. I think it somewhat qualifies. I can drive around in the winter without any problems. Unless the snow/ice builds up as high as my ground clearance (4ish inches). My biggest problem is my driveway and the ruts my dad's suburban put in it.
^ My car is sitting up higher than normal in that picture because of some weird ice/snow formation on my driveway. It's moderately low by accident. LOL

In case you ever mess up one of your rims. I have 3 of this exact rim under my house.

I appreciate that, but I've had these wheels for like 6 years and will be selling them shortly. I have a set of rpf1's waiting for the snow and foul weather to go away.
As long as you like it, that's all that matters.
Don't get out much do you?
Thanks. Have a new set of wheels sitting at home awaiting my return for installation, I'll post more pictures then.(squinty)
yup, ive seen the new wheels. I just dont know what color they are. But i am guessing they are bronze.Don't get out much do you?
Exactly. not my cup of tea, but it looks pretty good I think.
It's a proper color Protege. I'm a fan.
