Mazda 626 Spare Tire Sizes

The Mazda 626 has used 4x110mm, 4x114mm (4 x 4.5") and 5x114mm (5 x 4.5") bolt pattern variations from 1979 to 2002 along with tire diameters ranging from 23.2" to 24.9" tall. Using a temporary spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicles with larger brake calipers and anti-lock brakes or traction control systems. Tire diameter as well as wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Mazda 626 years and options. In this case, 125/70R17, 125/70R16 and 125/80R17 spare tire sizes are used to avoid vehicle components while closely matching the original tire size diameters.
