Looks like CX-90 stock 21" offset is also ET45: 18x8" et45 20.97 lbs/9.51 kg 19x8.5" et45 23.17 lbs/10.51 kg 21x9.5" et45 27.98 lbs/12.69 kg Comparison with my winters looks acceptable, but might be a bit narrow.

Numbers look acceptable, did Mazda change offset or smth?

Hey, Considering upgrading my CX-9 to CX-90. I have a good winter wheels with 255/55/19 winter tires on them. Can I keep them for CX-90?

Ha!, that is exactly what I wanted, but never even hoped for )) I never need those extra seats but smaller SUVs are usually too small. Very strange though, given Mazda have the CX-60.

For me it sounds like there was another reason that was hard to identify or simply a production defect. Any engine has 1000 mile break in interval and it was very common back in the day to change the factory oil early. It would be too bad of a design for a major manufacturer if an early oil...

Not many Toyotas are turbo. And those long OCIs is a new trend. I'm skeptical they will keep going X00k miles with those intervals.

My latest experience is that pads gets out silently on CX-9. No squeaking. Our friends' car got front/rear completely out unnoticed and had to replace rotors as well. Breaking performance was very bad until they fixed it. If non-technical person drives the car it could take some time to notice...

Re-sharing my experience from older thread with Rotella multi-vehicle. Still unbeatable for oil dilution.

Can we really describe it as very small percentage by now? Any subjective ball-park? Earlier when I followed first reports it felt like quite common.

Oil Analyzers use Horizon labs, so it is not exactly under the Amsoil umbrella. And I never noticed any bias towards Amsoil in dozens of reports I got over years from couple of labs.

My plan is similar to above, except I might consider a trade in for upcoming cx70/90 in case I like them better and they have same wheel setup )

Reposting here a good option in case of oil dilution:

Sharing an experience with Rotella 5w-30 (multi-vehicle). This oil turned out to be particularly good for engines with dilution. Got a hint from WRX forums and got repro on both of my cars. Rotella results marked with red: 1: 2015 WRX started to show diluted analysis after a Stage1 protune...

Rears could go faster if you ride cruise a lot. Not 100% sure if Mazda does that, but it is pretty common for a cruise to break on the downhill to stay on the set limit. I don't think there is any other option for a gas car.

Got a set of new Scorpion All Season Plus 3 instead of OEM Bridgestones.. looking forward for a better wet traction for the next 9 months of rain season )

Do you do the maintenance yourself? What form of confirmation did you provide?

Seems like I rushed a bit... just got a lead for a better fix :)
