17" wheels that look like stock?

I am planning on setting up my car so that very little appearance of modification is visible (a sleeper, i guess?). I would like to get a set of wheels, preferrably 17" that look as similar as possible to the stock 15" wheels that come with the 99 ES.

Any suggestions?

to bad you have 4 bolt hubs....as the 17" STOCK MAZDA Alloys that came on the Millinia fit like a champ....and look just like the 16"...or VERY close anyway. Alas....they are 5 Lug.

do you know if the rims off of the Millenia are lighter than the 5 lug rims from a 2001?

which 5 lug rims? the stock ones on a protege? I doubt it...as the stock millenia wheel is BIGGER...and pretty much made the same....thus more material....meaning heavier.

i know this is virtually impossible, but I am looking for the wheels on the stock ES, just bigger.
