    Says to ask them for packages etc, they should be able to tell you if they'll fit or not.

    Size: 19x7
    PCD: 5x114.3
    Offset: +42

    19x7 size is good for 215/35R19 (7-8" rims), but sadly not for 225/35 (7.5" rim minimum) Hunt around and you might be able to find a 225/35R19 aproved for 7" rim fitment, but most tyre manufacturers probably won't allow that as warrantable. 215/40R19 may be permissible if you can find any.

    225/40R19 is your best bet to get some additional rubber on the road; you will need to check it very carefully for clearance etc. Take the time to do that and you should be good. You'll need a centering ring to suit the wheel and the mazda hub depending on the center bore measurement.

    PCD is correct

    Offset is potentially legal but not ideal. You are pushing the face of the wheel out 10.5mm even before you account for any additional rubber width. You would need to roll your guards a touch for even 215 fitments to be ensured clearance.
    Your inside track will move outward 10.5mm with 215 fitted and 5.5mm with 225 fitted. You should therefore see lighter steering, increased torque steer and more negative steering feedback.
