2021 MAZDA CX-3 — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the bolt pattern for a 2021 MAZDA CX-3?
The 2021 MAZDA CX-3 uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern (also called lug pattern or PCD). The center bore is 67.1mm and the offset is 45-50mm.
What other years of MAZDA CX-3 have the same bolt pattern as the 2021?
The MAZDA CX-3 uses the 5x114.3 pattern from 2016 through 2021. Wheels from any of these model years are dimensionally compatible with the 2021, provided the offset and center bore also match.
What is the PCD for a 2021 MAZDA CX-3?
PCD stands for Pitch Circle Diameter, which is the same as the bolt pattern. For the 2021 CX-3, the PCD is 5x114.3.
Do 2021 MAZDA CX-3s use lug bolts or lug nuts?
The 2021 CX-3 requires 12x1.5 hardware. Check your specific trim to ensure you use the correct conical or spherical seating.
What is the center bore of a 2021 MAZDA CX-3?
The factory center bore (hub bore) for the 2021 MAZDA CX-3 is 67.1mm. If your aftermarket wheels have a larger hub bore, you will need hub-centric rings to prevent vibration.
Why is matching the 67.1mm center bore important for the 2021 CX-3?
The 67.1mm center bore ensures the wheel is perfectly centered on the hub. If the wheel is lug-centric instead of hub-centric, you may experience steering wheel vibration at highway speeds.
Fitment Checklist Before You Buy Wheels
- Verify thread pitch before installation; M12x1.25 and M12x1.5 are not interchangeable.
- Confirm bolt pattern carefully. 5x114.3 is often confused with other common 5-lug patterns.
- This fitment uses a wide offset range. Check brake clearance and fender clearance before buying wheels.
- Torque lugs in a star pattern to 80 ft-lbs (108 Nm), then re-check torque after 50-100 km (30-60 miles).
