Changing CX-5 Rims but Keeping Tires, hopefully!

[icarlos]

Hey folks,

I want to get new rims for my liquid silver touring and found these:
https://www.amazon.com (commissions earned)

I want to be able to use the same yokohama tires that came with. Could anyone tell me if my tires will fit on these rims?

Thanks so much!

Factory for the 17 inch seems to be 17x7.5. Also according to this page the bolt pattern does not appear to be the same,

Bolt pattern should be 5x114

These are more expensive but would fit and weight a few pounds less each

These would work as well

hmmm... you are right, can't even see where the bolts go.

Can some one here post a link of something similar that will feet?

Thanks !!!!

On the wheel you were looking at the bolts are under the center cover. Both the two wheels I linked to would fit. If you can spend a bit more money the BE GTS-AV look badass in my opinion.

Ops sorry didn't notice the links. Awesome rims, any pictures on the actual cx-5?

Tried doing a search for you, but the car is too new and I guess the mod scene isn't big for this car yet. I did find one with painted stock wheels that looks nice though.

Just search "5 X 114" on Amazon, if you were interested in purchasing there (Prime member?)
Free shipping would be a nice perk.

I linked to a Vendor that sells rims, Font Motorsports. I had alot of correspondence with him, he will answer and direct you to what you may need. Before you buy anything from THE RACK, try him first (same product, same balancing). I have no interest in Font, I just think he is a good guy.

Post 208 on this thread shows the Breton gts wheels in silver on a white car if that helps some.

A $200 wheel that you spend $100-$200 to paint or powdercoat to a different color is still a $200 wheel at the end of the day.

Before you paint your factory wheels which may not have the ideal width or offset, consider buying a set of aftermarket wheels that you love and sell your factory rims. You probably find that is cheaper to do that when it's all said and done and have what you really want.

I think this is super advise, you should do this.
