16" Steel Rim Compatibility Question (I read archives for an hour)

I'm planning on buying a set of steel rims for this winter and just finished reading the achieves for an hour, but I couldn't find a definitive answer to the 16" steelie question...

I know lots of people use 14" and 15" from Eclipse, Talon, etc, but I have 4 like-new 16" winter tires and I'm looking for 16" steel rims to put them on. Does anyone know of any "factory" Mazda steel rims that are...

16" diameter
5x114.3 lug pattern
67.1 hub bore
FWD offset
 
Do the have to be steel? I mean I understand about not wanting to damage your rims, but what about a set of stock ES/P5 wheels or something for winter? I see em for pretty cheap all the time.
 
Yes I prefer steel to handle the abuse. Have you ever seen the potholes in Pittsburgh Winters? They are like sink holes that will rip your control arm off.
 
This is the only match I have found so far...

These will fit just fine.
