Wheels for your Protege DX

Zchild92,

Hey! I happen to have a 94 DX and I have the 2000 Mazda Protege ES wheels with the 195/55/15 tires. The wheels look good and there are no fitment problems. Pics below.

Also, any MX3, Miata, and other model (LX...) Protege's with the 4*100 bolt pattern will fit without problem. I am certain the Escort GT Wheels will fit as well.

First generation Miata wheels have a 45 mm offset, which is unusual and about 10mm more than typical aftermarket wheels. Don't know about the second generation Miata because I didn't have one of those.
