my p5...

:
2003.5 White Mazda Protege5
ok, here are some pictures of my p5. i posted in another forum about my wheels. i just bought them last tuesday (barely a week). i had them mounted and balanced at a local Discount Tire shop. brought them home, put them on and the car shook mad at 40 mph. had my old man take my car in on thursday last week to have them rebalance them for free. car ran great! went to wash it sunday and saw that all of my rims were scratched in the lug nut wholes. so, went to Discount Tire today and the guy was helpful. they are replacing the tire that i blew on my stock rims for free so that i can drive around on those while they send my rims to be repainted white. here are some pictures of the car right now before i take it in tomorrow and they took my wheels. there are more here... http://www.blankverse.net/index.php?module=pictures&aid=3 - Sorry that they are small. i have larger ones but i have to do some recoding tomorrow of that website to get the larger ones to popup properly.

Welcome and BTW nice P5!

What size wheels and tires are those? They fill out the wheel wells really nicely. Also, which kit are you using for your Head Unit?
 
I am not really new guys. I've had my P5 for a year on May 29th and have been a member since September 2004, but thanks for welcoming me again! Haha! Anyways, the wheels are Nippon Racing 6 Spoke White (obviously) : ). The tires are Essenza 205x40R17. I am not using a specific dash kit for the head unit. Go to Circuit City and tell them you need a universal snap in pocket and they will hook you up! They are a little pricey. I have a wholesale account with a local distributor that I plan on setting up a small website with to give deals to just Protege5 members. If anyone is interested, let me know and I will go ahead and set up the website!
