New Speed Protege owner here

[Redlyne_Speed]

Still fumbling around, my fiance and I just got the car this week, traded off my 00 Celica.

Love the car, the fun side of semi-practical (ala 4 doors). Sad but true we're going to drive it this winter, need wheel tire suggestions, will 16's fit over the brakes? Trying to figure out most cost effective today to get winter rubber on ASAP.

Thanks.

youll be fine with 16s.

welcome to the board! buy your car some Nokian winter tires at KalTire. then you can drive with same grip like summer time!


what color of the MSP do you have? are u the 2nd owner of the car?

 

[Redlyne_Speed]

Yes my fiance and I are second owners of the car, it has 37k on it. It's also Orange.

Yah we're looking a a bunch of options we justed to make sure that 16's would fit, my buddy at Kal wasn't so sure. What size would we need then? 205-16-55?

 

[Redlyne_Speed]

Oh yah we're in Red Deer BTW

Welcome

WElcome to the WORLD of the MSP~

I have 205 60 15" that has only a 0.29% diameter difference...go to www.1010tires.com and use the tire size converter~

 

[Redlyne_Speed]

Wow it amazes me that you can fit 15" over the brakes.

Stylin' on 15" Steelies for the winter (not)
Does the P5 have the same brakes as the MSP?

welcome to the board. A friend at cal tire eh? wanna hook us up?

 

[Redlyne_Speed]

I believe the MSP has bigger brakes, 11" rotors all the way around.
