As promised, pics of my P5 with Mazda3 rims

[p5-lamboneon]

Heres some pics that someone asked for, rims are Mazda3 16X6.5 rims, tires are 205/50-16 Kumho Ecsta 711's.

JDM tilt yo!!

They are silent, ride great, and my ride is no longer harsh, I love em'.

Eibach Sportlines/Tokico Blues

Looks great! I wondered how the Sportlines would look on a p5.

 

[mountjonas]

those look better than the 17" mazda3 wheels.

i like my 17's better those still look good

 

[Roywhitep5]

damn that looks good

 

[Watarski]

That looks sick. That is one clean black ride...

Thanks guys, I neglect this car pretty badly, I keep my attention on my show car, this thing gets beat up and hardly ever washed. My Neon is on a schedule (yes I know, pathetic).

And personally, I like these WAY better than the Mazda3 17's, it's all a matter of personal opinion.



PS: My old rims and tires are for sale.

Wow very nice, some blacked out headlights would really complete the look. Great drop!

Do the stock headlights come apart pretty easily?

where did you find those rims??? I've been looking everywhere and can't ever find a good complete set.




PS: yes I've looked in this site's classifieds

It's not too bad, there's a how-to written for it:

I found them on ebay for $250 shipped! Great price, got them in like 3 days!

And they are perfect, not a scratch on them!

the Mz3 16s look great! 1000x better than the 17s IMO.

soo many stock Mazda wheels look awesome on the Protege5

Agreed!

I would have gone for RX8 wheels (the 18's), but I was trying to reduce the teeth rattling ride.

The teeth rattling is fun though In a week or two I'll be back on my stock 16s with 195/55/16 blizzaks so I'll have a nice plush right haha

sweet looking car. I like this design better than the RX-8 rims that they're based on acutaly.
