    Air bag add ins for towing

    I use these on our pilot to tow our waverunners. They work great, keep everything level and safe. They'll also work great on the cx-5. I'll be using these with my H&Rs.

    After lots of reading, which size 19s?

    Trading my Mazda CX-5 for a 2014 Subaru Forester XT
