Easy Q about P5 and Protege Lugz
 

Does the 2002 regular Protege with a 2.0L I-4 have the same lugnut pattern as the P5?

Sorry if this has been asked before, but TIA for anyone who replies with an answer.

Yep! :bt: 114.3(4.5)X 5

hey eggynatey, got a pic of your car with the subzeros on it?

Sure! Here's a couple.

I know, I know. I need some springs.:D

Isn't the 5 lug pattern only on ES models though? But yeah if it's the 5 lug pattern it is, if you have 4 lugs, no :)

Ya, that's what I was thinking. Are the ES models the 2.0L, or does that refer to the trim line of the car?

I figure the lower power 1.6L has the four-lug wheels and the higher power 2.0L has the five lug, like the P5.

Is that right?

Depends what year...
99-00: DX & LX = 1.6L; ES=1.8L
01: DX & LX=1.6L; LX 2.0 & ES=2.0L
02+: All 2.0L

(Note: U.S. market only, Canadian models were still available after 2001 with the 1.6L; the username "Labrador Boy" suggests you are a Newfie. I don't entirely understand the 99-03 Canadian Protege lineup.)

Not quite. For all North American 99+ Proteges, rear drum brakes= 4-lug, rear disk brakes= 5-lug. Only the 01+ ES, P5, MP3 and MSP have rear disks and 5-lug hubs. However, I think that in Canada, the 01-02 ES had to have the "GT" package to get the rear disks. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. :D

That's correct! :D

Very informative post man, thanks.

The rear disks would be the thing to look out for then.

Yes, I am in Canada, but I'm no Newfie! I'm from Labrador, therefore I am a Labradorean ;)

The bottom line is....if its 5 lug....they are all the same.
