Have a 2005 2.0 petrol 8 seater
It came with some naff JDM rims which have old tyres on, time to renew the tyres really
I thought I’d start looking for some OEM Mazda rims, as I like the standard look
Ideally I’d like the size tyre
205 55 16
As a couple of my cars have that size so handy for chopping and changing
What models of Mazdas have suitable wheels for me to hunt for
Am I right in thinking Hyundai and Kia’s are a good swap, lots of venga and ceed rims online
Any thoughts welcome

Bear in mind Bongos are heavy beasts.
Most car rims aren't up to it.

Hi.
Personally I'd go for 17" as this gives some good tyre choices - 225 50 R17 for the same rolling circumference as stock or 225 55 R17 for a little bigger which is what we have. I'd also go for strong wheels - say 750kg given all the potholes

BongoSpares sell refurbed OE alloys which are very reasonable for the money.
