Title says it all.

Will the 16" OEM mazda 3 rims fit over the gen2 speed3 brakes? I know gen 1 speed3 owners use 16s for winter just wondering if 2nd gen speed3 can do the same?

THanks all

some of the aftermarket 16s wont fit due to offset but usually will fit

Are you sure you understand the term OEM ? OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer, in this case Mazda.
Costco sells universal fit steelies, not Mazda specific steelies.

Don't tell me you bought gen 2 speed 3 just for winter and use the M3 for summer?

2nd gen

When you guys say gen2 you mean 2010+? What are the differences? I am wanting to upgrade my 2006 mz3 to the OEM BBK setup using mazdaspeed3 calipers and rotors.

Do mazdaspeed3 calipers fit with rx7 fd 16" rims

Yes, Gen 1 is 04-09, Gen 2 is 10-13

No difference only that lower spec 3's of both gens use a smaller brake setup.

I am currently running Speed brakes with fd's.
