Mazda Gamme Mazda - utilitaires ou VUS
The SUV lineup is now the core of Mazda's catalog in North America. It covers several segments: from the subcompact CX-30 to the compact CX-5 (one of the brand's most popular models), through the CX-50 designed for more adventurous use and assembled in Alabama, up to the large CX-70 (two rows) and CX-90 (three rows) built on a rear-wheel-drive platform that favors dynamics. These vehicles target families and drivers seeking versatility, driving enjoyment, and a refined cabin. Most offer standard i-Activ AWD all-wheel drive, an important asset for Quebec winters. As for tires and wheels: 5x114.3 mm bolt pattern, diameters ranging from about 17 to 19 inches depending on size and trim. A dedicated set of winter tires, often in a slightly reduced diameter, is strongly recommended in Quebec for safety and comfort.

Tire and wheel compatibility
La gamme Mazda partage très majoritairement un entraxe de 5x114,3 mm (5 trous), avec un alésage central typique d'environ 67,1 mm sur les VUS comme les CX-30 et CX-5. Les diamètres de jantes courants vont d'environ 16 à 19 pouces selon le modèle et la finition, les versions turbo ou haut de gamme adoptant souvent 18 ou 19 pouces. Au Québec, les pneus d'hiver sont obligatoires : pour les modèles livrés en 19 pouces, un ensemble hiver dédié en 17 ou 18 pouces (en conservant un diamètre global équivalent) est une option économique et confortable. Vérifiez toujours la dimension exacte, l'indice de charge et le déport selon l'année et la version.
