    Naw man... It'd look weird. I wouldn't do it. Good luck making them fit though... if you decided on getting a set of 19"s.

        Don't 17s already raise the car up a little bit? You'd have trouble steering with 19's.

          So, if your boys jumped off a bridge, would you do it too?

          19's will be an overkill for the Protege. I doubt they'll fit and even if they did it will not look good. Proportions will be way off. I sometimes think that 17's are a bit big, let alone 19s.

          while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

            Wouldn't 19's be really really heavy too? Just from a performance standpoint. . . I wouldn't do it. If you pull it off more power to you though! Good luck!

                I really doubt they would fit. And if by some miracle they did, I can forsee lots of rubbing...lots. You may look like your "big baller" friends, but the car will be slower than ****. Don't expect any acceleration, handling, etc. I don't know how the roads in the area you live are, but with the rubber bands that go around a 19" wheel, you run the risk of bending the rim over the slightest of bumps.

                  According to my Anger Management Counselor, after 26 weeks of anger management class, I should be an expert when it comes to Anger Management...tell that to the guy who threw a starburst at my car in rush hour traffic...haha

                        Paraphrase of what proto2k said: if you put 19's on, you won't be able to cruise.

                          Correct. I guess some people need the abridged version.

                            I say keep your wheels, and get those neons on. It'll look sweet.
