2 questions in 1 here

Do mazda 6 wheels fit on an mx6 and if so, do MPS 18inch wheels?

Cheers

Yes Mazda6 wheels fit on the Mx6, so i would assume the MS6 wheels also fit.

Did you have to use spacers John and if so what thickness?

**Einstein** · 6-3-07, 4:21

No... straight on Dave... and I have 215/40/17 tyres on..

Thanks John.

Since posting I realize the problem I have is the 225/50 tyres on the RX7 16" rims.

I have trial fitted on the front and although the wheel centre will 'bottom' on the hub the tyre is rubbing against the strut.

I hope the clearance on the rear is similar to the front so I may get away with 5mm spacers.

it looks good. I wonder how much did you spend with those mazda wheels?

**Einstein** · 6-27-07, 2:53

£30.....

yep... £30

then about another £40 for delivery, and another £220 for the refurb, and then another £300 for the tyres.

So. about £590 ish

Sorry before I continue, Didn't get the MPS wheels in the end as too much dosh. My mate's, mate is selling some lexarse wheels of the IS200 and think they will fit. Will they? they are 114.3 215/45/17 and 38 offset is that what ours are?

Sorry again, I promise I'll get some new alloys soon and stop with the stupid questions.

Dave

**Einstein** · 6-27-07, 17:35

Think ours are about 45 offset.. centrebore 67mm I think..

John

**Davidos12** · 6-27-07, 18:04

So that means i will need 7mm spacers and longer bolts?

Dave

**Einstein** · 6-27-07, 18:17

That would depend whether they rub or not...

I don't know anyone who has tried those wheels.. (or same fitment)

If you can try them first, you should be OK..
