Hi all.

My buddy has a 2002 Mazda Protege 5. Sometime soon he wants to get a set of wheels. He wants to go w/ an 18" wheel.

I'm not into rice, and personally like the JDM scene.

He described of what he wants in a wheel, and I mentioned the Buddy Club SFs. I showed them to him via a few pictures, and he loves them.

The wheels are 18" by 7.5" at a 42mm offset.

What I was wondering, is this wheel going to sit on this car alright w/ the offset and all?

If you guys are running 18"s, what offset do you have and what series tire??

Thanks a lot in advance,

Jeremy

Well, I'm sorry, but to most of us, rubbing with 2 people in the car = not fitting properly.
