Does anyone know if the OEM rims (16") from a Protege5 will fit (bolt pattern, offset, etc.) on the Mazda6? I have an extra set and might want to use them with winter tires.

Otherwise, I think I'll sell 'em and get some steelies...

So, what's the bolt pattern and offset of them? Bolt pattern has to be 5x114.3

I believe the bolt pattern is 114.3 x 5 and offset is +50.

I can personally attest to the fact that the protege 5 rims will fit. I actually have them on my car right now.

Just one more question.

I believe the P5 rim's width is 6". Will I be able to mount 215/55/16 winter rubber on these, or are they too narrow for that tire size?

I've been doing some research into this exact topic as well cause I just purchased a set of Protege5 rims to use with my winter tires. Haven't bought the tires yet, but according to the Michelin specs for a 215/55R/16 that size tire will fit a 6" - 7.5" rim.

Sorry to hijack your thread but I have a question. Will the Racing Hart wheels that came standard on the 2003-2003.5 Mazdaspeed Proteges fit on our cars? If so, how do you guys think this will look?
