Default Will the newer Mazda wheels fit my car?

Hi,

I have a 98 626 5-speed, still with the steel rims and snap-on covers. I wanted to "update" the looks a little bit, and wanted to find out if any of the newer late model Mazda sedan rims will work. Is there a way to find out the specs of my rims (it has a 5-lug pattern), but I'm not sure on the offset.

Thanks,

You could measure your rims. Most likely it's a 6.5" wide wheel, but I'm not positive. You need a 5 lug 114.3mm bolt spacing (measure the distance between (2) lugs not right next to each other for bolt spacing)

Using a tape measure or ruler,

1) Measure the overall width of the rim from outer edge to outer edge - call this measurement "A"
2) Measure from mounting surface of the rim to the inner edge of rim - call this measurement "B"

B - (A/2) = offset
