    Who is switching to winter tires and steel wheels?

    General Altimax is a good choice too. You can get them studded if need be. I used to have them in 17”s on my CX5 GT in the winter. Thing was a traction beast.

    I’m back on the wagon again - CX-70 Turbo S

    OEM Cargo Mat. It’s a 2 piece design that has easy folding to allow access to the under-floor storage compartments. Found it for 20% off with free shipping.

    Husky XACT Contour Floor Mats. I’d give the driver side an A+ and the passenger side a B+ (one gap on the left/inside about half way up). Still waiting on the rear piece after a month.

    Even at 30% off they were still pricey. LOL. But the fit and finish is second to none.

    Yeah, I was leery of it being bright candy apple red. But it’s a nice sophisticated looking color despite the lighting seen for some online pictures.

    I installed the color matched splash guards this weekend. Very easy to do, but I did have to lift the front end up a bit so that my drill could fit for the underneath holes. I bought them from MazdaSwag for about 30% off.

    Oil and change frequency?

    I had a 2005 Mazda6 for about ten years. Fantastic car. Just change the oil every 5,000 miles. Use a high quality oil that matches the recommended weight. And buy regular 87 octane gas. All you’ll do is waste money buying the more expensive grades.
