What is the tire size of the Mazda CX-5?
2 Answers
Mazda CX-5 tire sizes are 17 inches and 19 inches, with tire models being 225/65r17 and 225/55r19 respectively. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during driving. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance. The Mazda CX-5 is positioned as a compact SUV, with dimensions of 4555mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1710mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. The vehicle is equipped with the i-ACTIV AWD intelligent all-wheel-drive system, featuring a vehicle status monitoring system and a zero-lag torque control system, which confirms road conditions 200 times per second and adjusts torque distribution promptly.
I bought my Mazda CX-5 two years ago, and the original tire sizes come in two configurations: the mid-to-low trim uses 225/65 R17, while the high-end version comes with 225/55 R19. The series of numbers on the tire sidewall indicates this—for example, 225/65 R17: 225 is the tread width in millimeters, 65 represents the sidewall height as 65% of the tread width, R stands for radial construction, and 17 is the rim diameter in inches. Mine is the top-tier AWD model, so it comes with 19-inch wheels, which look more imposing but also make tire replacements more expensive, costing around a thousand yuan per tire. For regular family use, 17-inch wheels are more than sufficient, and the thicker sidewalls provide a more comfortable ride over speed bumps. If you're unsure about your tire size, the most accurate ways are to crouch down and check the sidewall or refer to the owner's manual.
