Mazda 3 wheels on a 4th gen?

Some of you may think i'm crazy, but for 4 wheels @ $175 total, i really like these wheels:


^link to the CL ad

does anyone know if these would fit our cars? without the mazda centercap, noone would be able to tell they're from a mazda, except mazda fans (lol!)

They should bolt up fine, but they're center bore is just a little bigger than the Maxima. I suggest getting some hub rings if your gonna get those and like said above, take off the Mazda caps.

I also have a Mazda3 and those wheels are nice, but keep in mind that even though they're 17", they're also only 6.5" wide IIRC. I know that limited my choices in tire sizes last time I had to buy for that car. Also, I think the offset is a little high.

Good looking rims on a 4th gen IMO, but too narrow.

my cousin bought a Mazda3.. She used to drive my car.. She said she liked my rims better because they were wider..
