Hello everyone.

I just bought my first car last month, and it is a 2002 dark blue protege5. :) I have stock chrome rims on. My boy friend has a 16" Z32 (90-96 300zx NA) wheels sitting at his storage room. We wonder if these wheels will fit my car.

Thank you,
Janice

Well, I'd say get the Z32 rims and try it on the protege. That's the only way I'd see if it actually fits. Other than that, try checking the bolt patters. Hahhaha! :cool:

Hope this helped a bit. =P

What is the bolt pattern (5x114.3 or 5x4.5), offset (+45-+55), width (6"-7.5") and hub bore (67.1mm) of the wheels?

Numbers in parens are what you want.....of course offset can vary according to width and vice versa.

Thank you for replying!

If I am not mistaken, I believe the wheels are 7.5" wide, and bolt pattern should be the same as the P5 as they are 5x114.3.

But yea, I guess the best way to find out is to put the wheels on and test drive it. I think the back should fit with no problem...just hoping that the front won't rub when I turn the wheels.

Don't get me wrong though, I love my P5 OEM wheels, it's just the fact that I don't like them in chrome...and my bf got some Z-wheels sitting at his apt...

But yea, I will let those of you who are interested know about the fitment of the Z-wheels.

The rear will have more fitment issues than the front to be honest, but either way you should be fine as long as the hub bore is the same.
