fixed the last link in my original post

the only thing is, what do i look at when picking out a rim? what would fit my pro?

the 1st rims specs are
104 SERIES 14 X 6 4-100 / 4-114.3 or 15 X 6.5 4-100 / 4-114.3
priced at 134cdn for the 14's and 159 for 15's

the second ones are
14X6 4-100/4-4.5 38 SLVR
priced a 159cdn

im pretty much looking for the cheapest rims that still look good, but even these will end up costing alot with tires. plus is cheap anygood? i dont want these the weigh alot more compared to stock

as for the 2 i picked out, they would go for 2 differnt looks, the first ones would be just rims, the second ones, i would probably drop my car with those.

I do not like the first ones. The second ones are alright, but you should save a little more and get 17s. It is worth the extra cash.

yeah, i wish, the only thing is i make 9.10/hour part time+gotta pay for school books, so 17's are way to much

im only looking to spend around $600-700cdn, i can get some 99 se rims with tires for 600 but they are 5bolt, and dont want the trouble of converting.

i agree the first ones were just to have some rims on the car, the second rims i was going for the darker gun smoke color and then thinking of dropping the car, something i've seen alot of on this forum

speaking of lowering, i've only been able to find springs for the 1G pro's, anyone make decent coilovers for our cars?

That is about all I know about coilovers.

I plan on dropping with the Eibach kit.

Check with Wheels-Direct in Toronto .. call and ask for Ben. Tell him your budget and the kind of style you are looking for and he will be able to suggest something.

both look pretty tight. im leaning to the 2nd rim. but the first one still looks phat!

lukasz70

hey Maz94Protege

i was just looking at your dx at cardomain

now i also have a 94 dx but the interior is a bit different. i have a different steering wheel, my cluster panel is different, i dont have a tac, even though its 5 spd and i've seen alot af car like yours, but 1 or 2 like mine, i was wondering why they would change those things on the same model car.

Identity_X

You can swap your gauge cluster with one from an LX (which has the tach) It's a direct replacement.

As for the wheels, if you're on a low budget, look into getting some OEM wheels from newer Proteges and Miatas. There are some that look very nice.
Beachnut on the forum has '03 LX oem wheels on his car and they look very good on his 1st gen. Here's a pic:
