Huh? sandblasting the wheels and spraying them with etching primer and silver paint is not all that expensive. When done right even the rattle can paint lasts better than powder coating. 14" tires are pretty darned cheap as well. I wouldn't want to make that kind of a drive on old crappy tires. If they do blow out it will most likely be catastrophic and cost you a lot more in body repairs than new cheapy tires will. You can find trim rings for 14s used and in decent shape for pretty darned cheap too, they don't need to be brandy new Mazda specific ones.
