Mazda CX-5 tire sizes: common questions
What size tires does a Mazda CX-5 take?
- It varies by trim and wheel size, 2 factory fitments exist, from 225/65R17 up. Check the placard on the driver's door jamb for the size your specific vehicle left the factory with.
What is the bolt pattern on a Mazda CX-5?
- 5x114.3. That is the figure you need when shopping for aftermarket wheels; centre bore and offset still have to match separately.
What should the tire pressure be on a Mazda CX-5?
- 35 PSI front and rear, measured cold. The number moulded into the tire sidewall is the tire's maximum, not the vehicle's recommendation. Do not inflate to it.
What is the lug nut torque for a Mazda CX-5?
- 87 lb-ft, tightened in a star pattern with a torque wrench. Impact guns routinely overshoot this by 100 lb-ft or more, which warps rotors and stretches studs.
Does the Mazda CX-5 come with a spare tire?
- Compact temporary spare on most trims; some diesel/turbo trims ship with a tire mobility/repair kit instead.
