Show me your rims and specs

[Stryker medic]

Hi guys. Been an owner of 2 Mazdas, 2007 CX7 and 2013 CX9. And I'm planning to do a wheel/tire upgrade for my CX9. Can't decide if I go with the same size but a wider rim like 20x8.5 or 20x9 so I can put on a wider tire like 265/45 R20( OEM 245/50 R20 tires are too narrow for me)... And my other option will be to go bigger like a 22 inch. So Im looking at a 22x9 or 22x10 with a 265/40 R22 or 275/40 R22 tires as well. I'm sure some of you have had this done so if you can share some photos of it with details, I appreciate it very much and I'm sure other owners will appreciate it as well.

Happy Thanksgiving guys. So nobody had ever changed their shoes on their CX-9s?

I have 2012 CX9 Touring and replaced with aftermarket wheel & tire set.

Tire size: 275/45R20
Wheel size: F: 20x9 +35 offset / R: 20x9 +18 offset

No rubbing, perfect fit.
+35 offset for both front & rear should be OK.

hello matsuda! what about 20x10 +40? it should still work right?

 

[MatsudaCX9]

Hello veyl,
20x10 +40 should work.
What's the size of the tire.

Dont know yet but probably 255/50. I know 245/50 on 20x9 is perfect.

After a lot of research done, I decided to go with 22x9 rims. Hope you like it guys.

Stryker medic - So I take it you're a 68W...I'm a former 91B. Do you have more pics of your ride? From what I can tell it looks sharp...more pics would be nice.

Those are some decent looking wheels!

How much did the ride change going to the 22?

Thanks jlanger. Just a little change on the speedometer if that's what you're asking. These are very nice wheels from Ace Alloy. Got the Ace alloy Convex Hypersilver 22x9 35 offset and slap a set of Toyo Proxes ST II 265/40 R22s. Made the ride, noise and driving comfort very smooth vs. the stock 20s with Bridgestone tires

Really nice!! And you could slap the mazda center cap on it too.

 

[Stryker medic]

The OEM center caps are smaller though compared to the size for the these wheels. OEM are 55mm in size and these are 75mm..

[metsfan999]

Yawn, that's all, one photo? I need some ideas!

 

[Stryker medic]

My bad guys. Just been so busy and occupied lately due to family health emergency. Been on the road to hospital and work most of the time and haven't got a chance to add more pictures. Newborn baby is in NICU.

 

[metsfan999]

family will be in my prayers. hope all is well.

 

[chuyler1]

No rush man, just surprised after 7 years I can't find any photos of CX-9s with aftermarket rims.

Man take care and our thoughts and prayers are with you. I've had a baby in the NICU/PICU I understand the stresses.
