Exclamation Pics of alloy wheels from 1st gens?

Hey all, my g/f is looking to replace her 14" steelies with 14" OEM alloys from a first-gen Protege. Does anyone have pics of first gens with OEM alloys? I know that there are two types and one's more common than the other, and we'd like to see pics of both if possible. Also if anyone in the NY tri-state area is selling a set cheap, please let me know

Thanks in advance!

Re: here ya go

Ahhh, thanks guy! We went to a local boneyard this afternoon to check out a set of Protege alloys, and those were the ones they had (minus the center caps though). Got any pics of the newer ones? Thanks again

i have the same wheels that groharlem has. (the first set that 99&00 protege posted the pic of). The 2nd pic he posted i think look better they came mostly on the 94's i think. maybe 93's. But both loook cool.

You might even be able to get ur hands on a new set of 3rd gen 14's or 15's. THey look sweeet!!! Groharlem jus got a set of em!!!

Thanks again for the pics and info, guys! I tried to talk her into some larger aftermarket wheels, but A) most are out of her price range and B) the tires on her 14s are brand new and she wants to keep 'em. That's why we're on a hunt for OEM 14" alloys

Do you have a pic of your car with these wheels on? I checked out the link in your sig but could only find older pics with the 13" steelies and wheel covers TIA!

Also, the factory alloys for the early 90's pro's are made by Eneki (spelling???)

Wow... thanks again for all the information, now I think I know more about Protege OEM wheel options than most people It looks like she's going to buy the raised-spoke first gen wheels after all. Thanks for the pic of your car with them on, Gro, i think that is what made her decide she wanted to buy them
