Sorry- typo. I meant 245/40R19. Exact same sidewall height as your stock tires. But if you want something taller, a 245/50R17 would be it.

I’d think a 225/40R19 would be perfect for a summer option.

@Casey56 Does it not have USB-C ports in the center console?

You know in the manual when it says to lubricate your caliper pins? This is why it says that.

And those don’t apply to its down-market cousins?

117,000 miles. I took it in for state inspection - the shop told me that technically they could have passed me, but I'd be needing brakes by the time the next inspection was due.

Look at any tire listing on Tire Rack - almost all of them publish revs per mile. And that site’s numbers are way off. OE tires on a CX-5 have a rating of about 724 - they give a number closer to 700. Same for a CX-90’s tires, where they say about 650, and the real number is about 670. They’re...

This always gets stated, but there’s a far simpler and more accurate measure that will give you speedometer error. Practically every tire on the market will give you a revs per mile rating. If you want to know how much a tire will throw off your speedometer, just divide the revs per mile of your...

I rescind my previous statement of reservation. Tire Rack will sell you a 22 x 10" wheel with a 42 mm offset. That's 182 mm / 7.17" backspacing, or another 1/8" more than what you'd have with the CX-70 wheel.

My biggest concern is that the CX-70 has a 9.5” wide wheel with a 45 mm offset. That’s going to give you about 179 mm / 7.05” of wheel backspacing. I’m not familiar with how much kingpin clearance the CX-9 has, but I’d bet that the CX-70 wheels are going to test it.

Just come clean - you put the car in rice, didn’t you?

It could be made from cast iron and it might not be that heavy.

If you take off the wiper arm and take the nut with you to a hardware store, finding a grommet that will fit around the shaft should be pretty simple.

Don’t even try paying attention to the mileage indication on the instrument cluster. It should come with a disclaimer saying “for estimation and entertainment purposes only”.

Can you develop a product to keep severely drunk people from driving? Because that’s who’s crashing during evening hours in the summer.

I've seen mine go either way.

The spare may indeed be the same size as a 235/65R17, but that doesn’t mean you want to run one wheel with that much of a size mismatch long-term. Are you outside North America? I’m just wondering if your OE tires are actually smaller than what we got in those years.

Well, there’s one on the Portuguese site… but they don’t actually show you the color, yet.

I’m confused - did you lose a tire, and you’re looking for a long-term spare option? Both your summer and winter tires are smaller than a 2007-2015 CX-9’s tires, and the 2016-2023 CX-9’s tires are bigger still.

Black, two whites, three grays, and Soul Red. VW did that a few years ago. Thankfully they walked away from it.
