Bolt pattern
 
I'm just wonder what the bolt pattern is on the 90-94 hatch. I have rims from my other car which are 4 X 100, but someone told me that it's a different pattern on the Mazda?

Anyone know, thanks!

It's the same - 4 lug, 4x100, but watch the offset. The oem offset is usually 45mm on a 14" or 15" rim.

Thanks very much!!

Sorry, a little OT but relating to bolt patterns - do you guys feel there's any difference between a 5x4.5" and 5x114mm? I mean 4.5" converted to metric is 114.3mm. The reason I ask is because I know several folks on the mpvclub.com forum who would like to upgrade to 16" wheels. The Pro5 16" wheels are listed as 5x4.5", and the wheels I bought for my MPV last year (which look identical to the P5 wheels) are listed as 5x114mm. Is there really any difference? Of course, I 'll have to double check offsets, but I see all sorts of P5 & 626 wheels here and on eBay and would like to be able recommend them as an alternative to other members. Actual MPV wheels are rare on eBay.

they are the same...... we tend to use 4.5" and 114.3mm interchangeably....when talking about wheel bolt patterns. if the offset is right....they will fit perfectly..

Thanks Sir Nuke! I just found the offset for the P5 wheels, it's 50mm, which is the oem offset on my MPV. I thought these were the exact same wheels, which means I have P5 wheels on my van. Or wait ... all you P5ers have got minivan wheels! (er, maybe not huh?!) :D

Ok, one last question about the '01 5x114 P5 wheels. The wheels on my '01 Mazda MPV, which I previously stated look exactly like the P5 alloys, are stamped on the back as 16"x6.5" JJ. Now, not to doubt the wisdom of the Protege FAQ ;) , but could someone please take a peek at the stamp on the back spoke of one of their P5 wheels? Does it say 16"x6"JJ or 6.5"?
