The R888 provides consistent performance throughout the life of the tread.

Do you have TPMS Sensors? Mazda offered a Tire Pressure Monitoring System on some years of this vehicle and some packages. Please note that we do not offer the sensors for sale here. If your Mazda has TPMS, then we can sell and send you just wheels so you can buy your tires locally and have your local tire installer transfer the sensors to your new wheels.
