the MazdaSpeed Protege Racing Hart rims, (think they changed it from the MP3's Racing Beat Rims) THey look better in my opinion. If not, maybe the Chromed out 03 P5 wheels. Id do the MSP conversion to your car, since i think your car is black right? get the badgine, and pedals and shifter. Bumper and spoiler
that would look pretty tight. Noone has done that conversion yet.

I see everyone with the MP3 Kit. noone with the MSP kit though.

Definitely the 2003.5 graphite-colored MSP wheels. Much cleaner and more attractive than the split spoke design of the MP3 wheels.

I like the MP3 wheals better ,
much more stylistic and much more agressive, wich is the look that is wanted with our style cars....

I liked the MP3 wheels at first, but then I saw the wheels on the Focus which have the same kind of split spoke design
I like MSP wheels because the spokes are thinner, but the 2003.5s are a tad better.

Go with neither. Get some light aftermarket wheels instead.

yup that's true ,,, although I wonder how much the mazdaspeed wheels weigh in at ..

I always figured that if the Mspeed guys put on some lightweight wheels say 16's ,, they would really frigin fly
