Fitting Acura Wheels on a 2nd Gen...??
 
Hi-
I have a set of Integra GSR (15 x6.5) wheels, very nice five spoke brushed aluminum finish...I'm going to fit them on my 2nd gen, I know the bolt pattern will fit, but just wondering if there are any other issues considering using different lugs..can I use the stock ones I have on?? and anything else...thanks...

I think the center bore of the Acura wheels may be too small for your Protege.

center bore? meaning the center cap itself??

Yeah meaning the hole at the middle of the wheel.
Honda/Acura are usually 64.1mm
Proteges (and most other Mazdas) are 67.1mm

If the Honda size was bigger, you could just get a centering ring to take up the difference in space (as with most aftermarket wheels). But since it is smaller .. not going to work.

But .. you have a 2nd gen so I don't know if the hub size is the same as 3rd gens. Have you checked the FAQ? Easiest thing to do is just try putting one on.

You will use the normal lugs you have on right now.
