I looked for a set these for about 8 months, when I was in the market, but never found this style for sale near me. I think they would look great on the SVX and the offset / bolt pattern works well.

Yes the Mazda 3 are quite narrow in comparison. The Mazda 6 wheels are wider but do not come in this style. The CX7 has 18" wheels in this style which look fantastic on the SVX.

If you are wondering what they look like here are some pics. of my '92 Ruby with CX7 rims (18" x 7.5" 50 offset) 225/40 18 tyres keeps the same rolling diameter, improved handling, fit well under the guards, springs do need to be dropped a little for looks.
