Wheel by wheel: offset and tyres

Each original wheel from Mazda Mazda3 MPS is compared with the one from Kia EV3 of the same diameter: how much closer the wheel gets to the shock absorber or how far it sticks out of the wheel arch, and whether the tyre keeps the same overall diameter.

  • ≈7Jx17 ET50 · 225/45R17 — Fits like the original

    Compared with the original 7Jx17 ET48 on Kia EV3: shock absorber side +2 mm, wheel arch side −2 mm, tyre diameter −8 % : fit it with the original tyre size of Kia EV3 (215/60R17), not that of Mazda Mazda3 MPS. Comparison for guidance only (estimated width). Check in detail

Before fitting the wheels

An identical hub is not enough: offset, width and diameter change the position of the wheel, and larger calipers can touch a smaller wheel. Original wheels often use bolts or nuts with a specific seat: keep the fixings intended for the wheel, with the thread of Kia EV3 (Ecrous - 12x1.50), tightened to the torque shown on its vehicle page. Finally, check that the size is among the approved fitments for your vehicle. This comparison is for guidance only: have the fitting approved by a professional.
