WARNING

Always securely and correctly tighten
the lug nuts:

Improperly or loosely tightened lug
nuts are dangerous. The wheel could
wobble or come off. This could result in
loss of vehicle control and cause a
serious accident.

Be sure to reinstall the same nuts you
removed or replace them with metric
nuts of the same configuration:

Because the wheel studs and lug nuts
on your Mazda have metric threads,
using a non-metric nut is dangerous.
On a metric stud, it would not secure
the wheel and would damage the stud,
which could cause the wheel to slip off
and cause an accident.
