PR5 with ADR GT-Sport Rims?

[worker_robot]

hey guys, i did a search but didn't see any protege5s with ADR Gt Sport rims...i'm not even sure these can fit on our cars, but i was wondering if anyone had photos with them installed?

i have a midnight blue p5 and was looking at either the white ones or the silver rims..

thanks!

I have these on my MSP. They are 17x7 with a +48 offset. Here are a couple of pix.

oh man 31R - your car looks fantastic! and those rims look really nice with your setup. i see a drop - what are the details on your ride?

altspace - i didn't know about the NEPOC ride, and i'm not sure i'm gonna be here that weekend!#% it woulda been nice to come out, i haven't participated in any of those meetups yet (relatively new pr5 owner, since nov 05)!

oh wait, never mind 31R - all the details are in the thread you linked...thanks!

Thanks for the comment!

There is also a hyper silver color as well. I would have got them instead but i got a great deal on the ones i got.

[worker_robot]

deal huh, do you reveal your sources? ;)

Those are some nice looking wheels. Any clue how much the 17 x 7 weighs?

[31R]

Not sure how much they weigh. I got my rims from rishie at autornd. Pm, ard mp5, thats rishie. If he still has any im sure he can hook you up.

so after a few months, i finally got these ADR rims...and some falken ziex 512 tires - and got them installed this past weekend:

now i fear that i will need to get some springs...hmm

[chuyler1]

uh yup... unless you plan to go off-roading in those. Drop that baby! I'd recommend the Espelir springs or the Eibach springs. Stay away from the other brands because they don't provide an even drop between front and rear. You can also go with coilovers but since you live in Cambridge, I'm guessing you don't want that harsh a ride.

Hey, if you're looking to hang out with some local P5 owners, check the NEPOC section. We're going go-carting this Sunday and to Zoom-Zoom-Live next Sunday.

[worker_robot]

hehe, yeah i don't think i'm going off roading but you'd think that were the case with most of the boston roads. f-ing tax dollars, hard at work. >:|

i think i'm gonna spring (uhh, bad pun) for the eibachs cause they seem to be a good drop but not too low. how are the eibachs with the stock struts? is that a good combo?

and yeah, i'm gonna make it out to one of the NEPOC events at some point - there's always something going on for me when you guys schedule something though :(
