Dimensions of wheels and tires / tire pressure

Technology is constantly evolving. It may be that for older models other values are permitted tire pressure. Therefore it is recommended to learn the latest information in specialized workshops.

Cars up to 9/89 MY. and all models are "universal"

Cars since 10/89 vol., Except models "versatile"

• All pressure data are cold tires. The increasing in the long trip to the 0.2 bar pressure not to pit.
• The pressure of the tire of a spare wheel of normal size corresponds to the maximum tire pressure for full load.
• Snow tires tend to have a pressure of 0.2-0.3 bar above. It should take into account the recommendations of manufacturers of winter tires. Since winter tires have restriction on speed, in the field of vision must be reinforced plate specifying the maximum speed.

MAZDA 323, depending on model and equipment can have tires and wheels of different sizes. However, it is allowed to use wheels with a depth of 45 mm pressing. Joining depth - the distance from the middle of the rim to the hard surface of the wheel on the disc or drum. All wheels are so-called safety hump discs. Hamp shoulder is pressed into the shoulder of the rim, which prevents a sharp turn squeezing tubeless tire on the disc. When installing wheels or tires not listed in the documents should be made to them in the documents for the car. For this, as a rule, it requires a permit firms MAZDA.

Based on the rules of the depth of the tire tread should not be less than 1.6 mm, namely, the profile should have a depth of at least 1.6 mm over the entire surface. However, it is recommended for safety reasons to operate the summer tire profile depth of 2 mm, and winter tires - to a depth of 4 mm profile.
