Well, I am probably looking to get some rims here sometime soon, 17s are the size I am going with. Laser Blue is the color of the Protege(pics below). The original wheel I was thinking about was this one, Speedy Wheels, Lite-5 17x7 +45 offset in Bronze, they are 16.3 ibs each.

I have also had my eye on the Weapon by MB wheels, comes in Gunmetal and Bronze:

i like the weapons, but i think there's a hub bore issue with them for the protege. you can run them, but you'll have to take off the dust caps.

I borrowed an image from Avarela86, hopefully he doesn't mind. I did a quick crappy photoshop of the wheels.

Personally anything in Bronze will look best on the car , The gunmetal is washed out by the blue of the car
