Those should work there are also some 16" steelies that fit (i think I'm going that route). You shouldn't have issues with 17" clearing the brakes but with 16's you have to be careful!

Bore hole as well.. But if it's oem Mazda rims, then you're good to go. Just need the right tires depending on RIM size.

Mags or steelies? I've been told Mazda steelies won't fit.

Alloy's-Mags . Steelies can fit, you just need to find the correct set. Most of our tire sponsors have the correct 16" steel wheels for the speed 3.
