Ok guys i know its been a while since i ahve posted.. Schhol is busy as hell...

I finally got my MP3 into the shop to fix up the backdoor that some ass hit and didnt leave any information...

Next im taking it to get the oil changed from the dealer.. well there im going to have them fix several things...

1.
The squeky shocks its winter again and its getting very very horrible.. does anyone know the part number i need to tell them to put in? is it known as a defect to mazda yet?

2.
When ever i break mild-extreme it turns on the emergency break light anyone know why this is?

Anways if there are anyother defects know to you guys that i need them to fix please let me know so i can have it done then to...

Also has anyone ever used the kumho escatas (or what ever) they seem kinda wierd to me im running them at 38 psi (45 is max and they still feel very unstable/flat?

YEP....check your brake fluid reservior....I would be willing to bet the level is low....

i know for a fact that it is the brake resevoir level that is low cause the same thing was happening with my car. i already need new brakes pads by now probably....they told me i had used 60% of mine and my car only had 26000 on it and just over 1000 on new engine, but just tell them to add brake fluid to the tank and it should be fine

i just got kumho ecstas put on and i have not had that problem. In fact i really like the tires. But then again i only have them on the back and haven't noticed anything. I am getting a pair put on the front sometime next week, so i will let you know then

Bump for more, Newf did the strut mount change on his ride, and fixed the cold noises.
Maybe do a search on newf?

i've got kumho ecsta supra's all the way around and I love em!! after they wear down for a while they do feel a bit unstable on daily driving over slight bumps and potholes and stuff... if the road is uneven you'll feel it.. but thats part of what i like about em... heres an anolgy

its like if anyone on here was ever into skateboarding... the best shoes for skating are ones with very thing yet strong soles... this is because you can "feel" the board better... its the same thing with these tires... i have the pretty low pro ones (215/40/17) and I love being able to feel the road... if your not used to it though it REALLY does feel like something may be wrong with your suspension... but these tires are AMAZING at gripping through corners... even now they are almost bald and they still hold better than the Dunlops did (in my experience anyway)...

tires are also (yah heres another analogy) kinda like golves... think about trying to type on a keyboard with big fat ass snowboarding gloves on... or trying to smoke a cigarette or do ANYTHING even dialing a phone with big gloves on.. its the same thing with tires.. bigger fatter tires on say 15 in. rims is gonna absorb alot more of the "road shock" to your suspension.. you wont feel as much.. and the thinner the tires the more your gonna feel... less cushioning...

my mom has the wider version of my tires on her maxima and she loves em too... I definitely am getting the same tires all around next time... 'cept i may go thinner.. like down to 35 or somethin... man i love those tires

and yes... about 38 psi is correct... thats what i'm at.. i may even be at 36.. dont remember exactly
