i got my silver prot5 used, a year and a half old, and it had some visible chips in the front. But after i busted out the foglight and kind of messed up the bumper area around it, i figured it was time to get a bra. I thought they looked tight (figuratively as well as literally), so I went to...

if they don't fit, how'd you get them on your car? did you do some custom stuff?

grr. i know this. I'm referring to the fact that I get comments every day on how I have a station wagon, and that I get the stigma that goes along with the usual wagon stereotype. I'm sure you've gotten the same. however, as we all know, the prot5 is not just any wagon, it's very sporty and...

yeah, i thought so. go here: http://groups.msn.com/AutomotiveRD/3rdgenprotege5wheelalbum.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=780

i've seen them on a protege5 before, and i could have sworn they were 18's...

in other words, no go?

i meant it's not far fetched in the fact that a rotary powered wagon has been done before.

I found some relatively decent GT1'a on eBay for an awesome price - with tires; two of which are brand new. they are 18x8, and this kind of concerns me, because on tirerack.com the widest they allowed on Prot5's were 7.5. Is this a problem? here's the page...

Again, I researched, and all I came up with was a rumor from last year. So I ask the question, what would it take to drop, say, and RX-7 engine into my Prot5? Is it doable? Have you heard of anyone who's tried? I know Mazda had an RX-4 wagon back in the 70's, and it was Rotary powered, so it...

hell yeah, dude

Re: Re: All Wheel Drive my bad. but when was the last time you've seen a puegot over here?

Yeah, I can see that it makes sense. I got that from a very unreliable source, anyway - he drives a 2002 Honda Civic LX, automatic. Not that that really means anything, but then again... I guess what's really the question now, is why would you get AWD?

not to mention, I kind of had my heart set on 18's, and those were just the best looking ones to me. Plus they're cheaper cheaper than the competitions, too.

and why would there be a power loss? i thought AWD improved your whp?

so how much are we talking about? anybody know?

I'm more or less new to the site, but I have been reading here and there and realized that quite often someone like me will come along and ask a question that has been asked 1000 times before. However, I actually did a search for "All Wheel Drive" and I did not get the results I had hoped...

here's a pic of them on a black prot5. I actually happened upon this when i was looking for just the wheels, not the wheels on a prot5...

around 400 a piece. I found them at www.discountpartcenter.com

Personally, I prefer slender 5-spoke 18's on my Prot5. The fact that they are 18 inches stands out enough. I want some of these:
