Can I Get Any 16" Steel Wheels for the Winter
Wrong tree. All the Canadian cars, auto or manual, have the sport suspension with the larger brakes. Mazda dealers have 17" steel wheels that fit, but not all 17" wheels fit! The brakes are seriously huge. 16" wheels of any type do not fit.
There are many threads discussing winter wheels and tires selections - a search for "winter wheels" will turn up many relevant discussions, especially in the Canada regional forum section. Preferred size for a winter tire is 215/55-17, second choice would be 225/50-17. Again, even a browse through the Canada section will show you several recent threads discussing what people are buying, and where, in Ontario.
Do the search, have a read, then fire away with any additional questions!

Gordon

Boy have I been barking up the wrong tree. Learned a lot on here and on the net.
No 16" wheels and no steel rims. No X Ice and no Nokian. Getting the 215/55-17 but not sure which rim, but more importantly which tire.
Thanks for the help guys and this great site !!

Dealer only? Tiretrends/Tirerack says they do not exist.
Who has details, price etc, and possibly a pic?
