mazda 3 wheels

Hey guys,

This probably isn't in the right place and I apologize if it is but has anyone put mazda 3 wheels on their 4th gen?? If so, do you have any pics of it?

I think they'd look pretty cool, kind of like the Mille Miglia IMO...?


Don't. bash. me.

Well is the bolt pattern the same? That will tell you if you can put them on a max or not... if you can then just photoshop em on to see how they would look

Mazdaspeed in the 17" racing hearts is the same bolt pattern. About the hub size and the offset I am not sure. The p5 I'm pretty sure uses the same bolt pattern as the maxima.
Other than that... I don't know. If you want to wait, I can try my wifes' mazdaspeed racing hearts on my Maxima later this week.

lmk.

that'd be pretty cool. does she have a mazda 3? don't worry about it if you really don't feel like it, it just hit me when i saw the 5 bolt pattern and the looks of the mille miglia's...

Mazda tends to hang around 67mm but exactly right about the offset, it will be in the 50s.

i tried fitting some 16 inch mazda 3 rims on my max the other day actually

the bolt pattern is the same, but the offset is a bit higher i think its 55, but when i put them on they clear everything, the problem is the center cap doesn't fit and has to stay off, so kinda kills the look of them

Even though they seem to clear they may need a spacer in the rear to seat the rotor correctly.
