The type of tyre that Mazda recommended was round, black (optional white wall) with tread. The tread helps when the surface is wet. ;)

Tyre sizes depends on the size of the rims. Stock 16\'s were 225/50R16 on 8JJ wide, later 17\'s came with 235/45R17 front and 255/40R17 rear. I think the 17\'s fronts were 8JJ and the rears was 8.5JJ wide.
