Springs and tire size's???
I plan on lowering my 2000 protege 1.75" all around. I currently have 15x7" Motegi's, do you guys think a bigger wheel and tire would look better or keep the 15's and live with it???

15's? hmmmm I thought all our cars came with 16's? or are these aftermarket wheels?
well no matter.....you can easily put 16's, 17's, and even 18's on our cars....but what you still have to do is to keep the DIAMETER of the tire at or very near that of the STOCK tire....and then you have to ensure that the offset of the wheel you have chosen is correct for OUR application....check the STICKY thread about Rishie's Wheel Recipe at the top of the forum for the information about fitment....and if there is still a question about a specific wheel/tire combination you are considering...write to Rishie before putting your hard earned green down.
