WARNING:

Only use replacement tires and wheels that are the

same size, load index, speed rating and type (such as P-metric

versus LT-metric or all-season versus all-terrain) as those originally
provided by Mazda. The recommended tire and wheel size may be
found on either the Safety Compliance Certification Label or the Tire
Label which is located on the B-Pillar or edge of the driver’s door. If
this information is not found on these labels then you should contact
your authorized dealer as soon as possible. Use of any tire or wheel not
recommended by Mazda can affect the safety and performance of your
vehicle, which could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. Additionally the use
of non-recommended tires and wheels could cause steering,
suspension, axle or transfer case/power transfer unit failure. If you
have questions regarding tire replacement, contact your authorized
dealer as soon as possible.

WARNING:

When mounting replacement tires and wheels, you

should not exceed the maximum pressure indicated on the

sidewall of the tire to set the beads without additional precautions
listed below. If the beads do not seat at the maximum pressure
indicated, re-lubricate and try again.
When inflating the tire for mounting pressures up to 20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the maximum pressure on the tire sidewall, the following
precautions must be taken to protect the person mounting the tire:

1. Make sure that you have the correct tire and wheel size.

2. Lubricate the tire bead and wheel bead seat area again.

3. Stand at a minimum of 12 ft (3.66 m) away from the tire
wheel assembly.

4. Use both eye and ear protection.
For a mounting pressure more than 20 psi (1.38 bar) greater
than the maximum pressure, a Mazda dealer or other tire service
professional should do the mounting.
Always inflate steel carcass tires with a remote air fill with the
person inflating standing at a minimum of 12 ft (3.66 m) away
from the tire wheel assembly.

Important:

Remember to replace the wheel valve stems when the road

tires are replaced on your vehicle.
