Mazda 6 Owners Manual: Replacing a Wheel
WARNING
Always use wheels of the correct size on your vehicle:
Using a wrong-sized wheel is dangerous. Braking and handling could be affected, leading to loss of control and an accident.
CAUTION
A wrong-sized wheel may adversely affect:
- Tire fit
- Wheel and bearing life
- Ground clearance
- Snow-chain clearance
- Speedometer calibration
- Headlight aim
- Bumper height
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System
NOTE
- When replacing a wheel, make sure the new one is the same as the original factory wheel in diameter, rim width, and offset (inset/outset).
- For details, contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Proper tire balancing provides the best riding comfort and helps reduce tread wear. Out-of-balance tires can cause vibration and uneven wear, such as cupping and flat spots.
Temporary Spare Tire
Inspect the temporary spare tire at least monthly to make sure it is properly
inflated and stored.
NOTE
The temporary spare tire condition gradually deteriorates even if it has not
been used.
