T turbonium959 : 2013 Mazda 5 Sport Feb 6, 2004 #3 Your 99ES has a 4x100 bolt pattern, and Mazda 3 has a five bolt pattern, so its impossible.

But his car has a 4x100 bolt pattern. He would need to swap out so many parts from the 01-03 ES model, that it would cost a pretty penny to do so. Plus, he would get a much better deal just buying non-Mazda rims. OEM rims are expensive.
