There were quite a few Mazda wheels available for the Roadster; ranging from 16" steel wheels through to 18" alloys. The Roadster wheel fitment is PCD 5 x 114.3 with a centre bore of 67.1mm. The wheel nut size is M12 x 1.5 and the factory specification offset was ET +55, it is possible to fit lower offset wheels for a wider stance. The standard tyre sizes used were 205/50/16, 205/45/17, and 205/40/18. When fitting wheels you should fasten the five wheel nuts in a criss-cross pattern to a torque between 88 and 118Nm. Here I've put together a list of wheels including those used on the various concept models, they were all made by Enkei with the exception of the BBS forged alloy.
Steel Wheels

Originally fitted to UK 1.8 models, most were swapped to the Design 110 wheel to help sales. Standard fitment on the JDM NR-A model. Makes a good winter wheel.
