Google says either 215/45/18 or 225/40/18 is factory size for MPS time.

thanks for that info - are the MPS and stock mazda 3i wheel wells the same size in respect to suspension components and clearance?

what i am attempting to find out if a set of MPS 18 x 7" wheels with 52.5 offset (same as my original 15 x 6.5) and ideally 225/40r18 tyres will fit with no issues on a stock mazda 3 i neo sport ?

anybody that has done this your input would be appreciated
