Do 'generic' 15x6 steel wheels allow for OEM Mazda plastic wheel covers (hubcaps)? I just want to run 15" steel wheels with 4 Mazda wheel covers.

I'm considering using 15" steelies with wheel covers / hubcaps for summer. cheap and light!

Anyone have said 15" steelies/hubcaps lying around :)

^ yeah been there done that and the 17" are bling and all but too damn heavy. I'm having way more fun driving with 15" winter steelies super quick and nible! I want that performance in the summer too!

Question to tire sellers here on the forum... How heavy are the steelies approximately? 15", 16"? To OP I think there are light 16", 17" and 18" alloy rims out there around 15-18 lbs that are well-priced. Imho alloys look better and you don't necessarily have to pay a fortune.

This is what I dont want any more due to slowness. (dont hate on me for wanting steelies, just been there done that!).. Pic below is my car with the 17" racing harts from the mazdaspeed protege.
