Will these rims fit on my FC?
I have an 1987 FC TII and i love the 2003.5 17"x 7 Mazdaspeed Protege Racing Hart wheels and I was just wondering if they would properly fit onto my car.

nope i tryed already and i regret buying them lol but it was 350 dollars wit tired so u cant complain
it fits in back tight space and in the front the tire rubs on the struts
but my friend tells me i can just put a smaller tire on the rims and it might fit i just been to lazy on doin that so im not sure mayb itll be different on a 87 turbo II, i tried on my 91 coupe

well they are an offset for front wheel drive, so im not supprised that they dont fit.
smaller series like a 35-17R might be small enough not to rub the fender should you put spacers behind the wheels.
good luck getting them to fit! i would like to see it if they did!
im not sure about the lug pattern size being the same. though, my rx has the 4 lug that will fit a 4 lug mustang wheel. i tried to get my svt focus wheels to fit but the lug measument was just a frogs hair too small.

yeah, alright i wont bother...it has cobra rims on it now w/ 245s and the front tires rub the fender on a hard turn or sudden dip in the road...so i know too well of the tire rubbing, but i figure lower profile tires should take care of it, or 225s or 235s in the front...maybe just new rims!
