    MX6 wheel pattern is a 5x114.3

    Do you have to run Mazda wheels?

      They need to be as small as mazda wheels. Like 14" or 15" wheels

        5x114.3 is the JDM wheel of choice (NISSAN, and just about every other tuner car). Go to the pull a part on wed, half off. Wheels are normally what, 25 a piece?

            They take off the aluminum wheels and sell them individually.

              Griffin, when you say that, what exactly do you mean? Mazda makes wheels in sizes of all sorts....I think the Miata even came with 17" wheels in some forms.

              1. Are you specifically looking for a true Mazda wheel?
              2. Are you in need of a 14" or 15" wheel for a specific task, rally or autocross? I ask because you would definitely want to run a different type of wheel all together for rally vs. autocross.
              3. You could get a Ford or Chrysler 5x114.3/4.5 (which is the same thing; you know that right?) or just search for 5x4.5 instead or 114.3 because the domestic models will not be in the metric version.
              4. Also, what width are you looking for? In a rally wheel you would want a smaller width vs. an autocross wheel width. (say 14x5.5 or 6 vs. a CSP size wheel 13x9 or 15x10)

              Just some pointers and things to think about.

                            95'ish mazda millinia wheels are nice and light. 15x6". Lots of the Integra type R guys run them for autocross.
