    Suggestions for selling rims/tires?

    I'm replacing my Mazda3 (lease is up) this week or next with a CX-5. I have a set of 16" rims with snow tires that I've had for 3 or 4 winters that I'll be looking to get rid of. Any suggestions on the easiest / most hassle free way to sell them?

    Mud Flaps / Splash Guards

    I'm looking to put mud flaps on my 2016 3s 5-door before winter. I can't put the Mazda molded mud flaps on because the car has the appearance package, which includes the side sills and rear diffuser. According to the Mazda accessories website, the flaps and the side sills/diffuser don't work...

    Trade in prices

    Found my car for sale online. (It's not difficult to stalk an MS6, since there are only about 40-50 nationwide for sale on cars.com. And only 5 red 2006's.) I got $3,200 for it as a trade in. It looks like the place that bought it at auction fixed the rust on it (I didn't want to put the...

    Traded in the MS6

    After 6.5 years, I'm trading in the Mazdaspeed6. I'm waiting on the dealer to find me a 2016 Mazda3 s grand touring hatchback in Soul Red with an MTX. It was fun, but I've changed and priorities are different. I'm looking forward to that $1.91/gallon gas and 30 mpg instead of the $2.50/gallon...

    Repaired after accident

    Some kid ran a red light and I wasn't able to stop in time. Almost thought I was going to stop. My front end impacted their passenger side front wheel/quarter panel. 3 weeks and $4,750 later (all paid by their insurance) it's looking better than it did before the accident. New bumper, new (used)...

    Bent rims - repaired

    Bent rims on my MS6 had been driving me nuts for about a year and a half. Nothing that you would notice when driving around town, but on the highway, they made me want to cry. In May, I finally made an appointment and drove the car 3 hours to have them fixed in Waltham, MA at Rim and Wheel...

    4wd light

    Driving down my street on the way to work this morning, the 4wd light on my dash was flashing. (Wonderful job on the streets, DPW.) We had a very light winter last year, so this might be the first time I've driven it in snow covered streets. I'm assuming that the flashing indicates that the...

    Advanced key affected by heat/humidity?

    I bought my MS6 last September, and the advanced key worked fine until this spring, when the button on the trunk wasn't responding. After 2 visits to the Speed dealer, they fixed it. (The first time they replaced the latch because the geniuses didn't know what I was talking about. Once I...

    First oil change (bought used) - questions

    (MS6) Has anyone used 0W40 oil in their cars? It gets as low as -10 where I live, and -20 where my parents are, I'm considering going to 0W40 if I can find it. Has anyone used the Mobil1 filters for our cars? I didn't see the part number listed in the stickied thread, but it's listed on...

    Saved $80 on a TV, ended up needing $700 in tires...

    Saturday, I arrived at BJ's (like Costco or Sam's Club) to get a new TV, and my mom noticed my rear passenger side tire was quite flattish. After buying the TV, went over to their tire dudes to get some air. Well, it was coming out as fast as it was going in. They took the wheel off to see if...

    Driving in the snow with stock MS6 rims?

    With all the spokes in the MS6 rims, does anybody have any tips on getting the snow out of the rims so that the car doesn't shudder down the road? My other cars were only 5 or 6 spoke rims, so I'd just stick my snowbrush/scraper in there to get them mostly clean.

    New Mazdaspeed6 owner (with pics)

    Hello all! I'm trading in my 04 Mazda6s on Thursday (9/3) for an 06 Mazdaspeed6 GT! Though I had a 6 before, I'm new to these forums. I'm much more excited about the speed6 than I was about my current 6. The speed6 has 35,000 miles on it (still has the warranty until June 2010) and was...
