    Why does Mazda insist on using black plastic?

    I have the machine gray also and the black plastic actually looks really good. The cx9 cladding is not extreme around the fenders....now the cx30 i would agree has excessive black trim around the fenders...not balanced styling wise at all. My 2018 cx9 sat at the dealer for 3 and a half months...

    I think I was two weeks into the ordeal when the dealer provided 2021 cx5 touring loaner. No cost to me.

    2016 CX-9 GT AWD Next set of replacement tires?

    Thanks for the correction. I know my previous Yokohamas were a special discount tire model and i assumed incorrectly on the Premeir LTX "DT"s(how long does a tire name have to be? lol) Great tire for the cx9.

    2016 CX-9 GT AWD Next set of replacement tires?

    i would guess the m+s would be noisier due to the more aggressive tread....and of course better for snow, mud traction, and a compound better suited for colder temps....harsher winter areas. I live in nc so the Winters are mild, but do have occasional freezing temps and a little snow/ice...roads...
