Hey wheel experts.

I have a set of 18" BBS CH (5x112) from my B5 S4 and I saw an adapter for 5x112 to 5x114.3. I think the adapter is 1 inch thick and I want to know if the BBS offset of 35 will fit my speed3.

What offset do we have on our cars?

Thanks so much

its 52.5 like all the other newer mazdas i believe... unless you were to add some big fenders you are pretty much screwed.

45 and up to be safe, esp if you want to run wider tires and a lower ride height. Anything under that and it could mean trouble as far as rubbing goes.
