Show me your CX-5 wheels

I think you chose a bad vendor!

A bad vendor, because of the lousy logistics in the TSW Factory in your country, they put a 5 x 120 PCM wheel in a 5 x 114,3 box !!!! Thats the couse of the long waiting on the wheels !!!
Nevertheless my distributor was so kind to bring the wheel (with the good PCM) to my distributor......Now it`s done with that and the wheels ? They are awesome !!! Don`t you think ?

The wheels are made in China though O.o Yes I like them, they look more concave in the picture on the TSW website though. Now you just need lowering springs.

Oh yes, they are a little bit concave, in the folder they used a 10 or 10.5 Jott rim, this is 8.5 J. Of course you knew that.........

Chris, when I buy lowering springs, aren`t they stiffer than OEM ? Because I think with lowering springs you lost comfort...........

Here you can see the little concave of the wheel. I think it`s great !

Hi Chris_top_her!

Any problems with the width of the wheels?? do you happen to know the offset of those?? Talked to Mazda here in Sweden but the werent sure that 255 would do it, they might scratch the "whatever the enlishg word is for the wheel compartment"?!?!
 
I've been lurking in this forum for a while. I finally pulled the trigger and go some new wheels on my '13 CX-5 Touring. These are 19" Drag 37's on 225/55 pirelli cinturato p7 all season plus tires. Only have about 10 miles on them so far but dang, I'm loving the look!!

I have not had any issues running 255" with a lowered spring. Others have run 245/255 with 9-10" wheels with good results as well.
 
How about, with the Corksport springs? I need to figure out what kind of wheel/tire combination would fit with these.
I'm thinking about getting the Mustang Brembo wheels which are 19" x 9" x ET 42. With this wheel size, I would need 245/50/19 tires. I wonder wheel width wouldn't change the tire size?
Another question, that I have is, I will have fitting issues, specially when turning the front wheels?
