Winter options for 19' wheel

[njbooth954]

For those who have the 19' wheels, who puts 19' snow tires on and swaps them or who chose to put 17' wheels with the 225/55R17 tires on? looking into it some and found both are about the same price. Just curious what other members did this last winter

Not on my new 6 yet but my previous car I ditched the 19's and went with 17's and a taller sidewall due to hitting our Wisconsin potholes. I ran Dunlop WinterSport 3D's and cheap wheels from Tirerack to save the factory wheels and low profile tires.

^^Pretty much what I was thinking, grab some steel wheels and the other factory size tires on and an easy wheel swap every season instead of tire swap.

Also went with 17" from the stock 19". Dunlop Winter Sport M2 on alum wheels from Tire Rack. The extra side wall is helpful. About $1,000 for the whole package.

Can the 17" MSP Wheels be used for "Winter rims" on the 2015 Mazda 6 (in place of the 19" Wheels). Is there a way of finding out the Bolt patterns?

Go to www.myboltpattern.com and you can check compatibility.

Thanks, It'd be great to be able to get more use out of them!!!

Well, I'll get to try the rims on tomorrow, P/U 6 GT tonight.

That 6 GT is incredible, I had to ask the dealer if it had a Porta-Potty, it has EVERYTHING ELSE!!!
