O.k. first off, I don't know much about the cars, but I'm pretty sure they've got the same bolt pattern, and hub size, so they would bolt right to my car. But Knowing that heavier wheels= slower acceleration, are these rims any heavier than the stock 14" steelies??
Also what sizes did they come in?? 15? 16? 17 perhaps??

I picked up a set of 15" MX-6 rims tonight. The bolt pattern is the same so I hope they fit. I plan to use them for my winter tires.

The MX-3 uses a 4x100mm bolt pattern, the OEM offset is 45mm.
