Mazda 626 wheels fit MSP

[danprin]

After doing a lot of research, I have discovered that 15" or 16" wheels from any year Mazda 626 or MX6 will fit the MSP. The key was when I found the link below. As we all know from other links here it needs to be a 15" or 16 " with 5 bolts X 114.3 mm (4.5") bolt pattern and a 67.1 mm centerbore.

No one, not Mazda, not any of the tire dealers had any clue about this. I went to a local Junk yard, and was lucky enough to find a 1999 626 with alloy wheels and cooper all season tires that just happened to be 195-60-15. they looked almost new. I got the 4 wheels and the tires mounted on my car for $200.

The way I look at it, even if I don't like the tires, I can still get snows put on have some decent looking wheels, and still save money to spare.

Hey danprin-

What junkyard did you go to? I've been looking around NH and haven't found anything yet. Any other places to look?

Thanks for doing the upfront research.

Yep, I knew this for a while too. My girlfriend used to have a 626 and the wheels fit right on the protege.

Junkyard

I went to Majestic Motors in Merrimack, NH. Most junk yards should have some 626's though. Just have them check to make sure they are 15 or 16"
