Just got a 99 pro as a winter beater. It's got 14" stock wheels, and could use winter tires. Being the el cheapo that I am, I'm wondering if it'd be possible to use some 205/75/14s from my old minivan that died last yr (right after buying winter tires)... Is this doable, or will I have to sell...

I brought my 2010 Mazda 3 in for service bc of road noise and poor handling. I was notified that i had a bent rim/wheel and that was the cause. They said i also needed two new tires because of the bent rim. If i don't get the two new tires, are there any issues i should be aware of? Safety?

Hi everyone, I have a question regarding a possible tire setup for autoX on my 08 Mazda 3 Hatch. Its my understanding that larger tires up front are best for FWD cars because they induce oversteer and neutralize handling. The question part is this: Is this true? If so what is the widest size...

I just purchased a 2008 3 hatchback, I love the car so far by the way. any way i have been hearing that this car goes through tires like nothing due to the camber or the rims. I was wondering what type of tires someone might recommend for long use but also still getting good all season...

hi all, well seems like ill be purchasing another pair of rota torques this time 18x8 +48 for the MS3. looking to put some super beefy nexen N series tires on them, rolling the fenders won't be an issue if it comes to that. which size would best fill the wheel well? P.S. the car IS NOT...

Hello all, I'm wondering if someone here can help me choose some new tires for my Mazda 3 2006. First of all, I have the highest end model from that year and my car seems to take Z rated tires. Do I really need to install these? What will be the difference if I install other ratings? Now, a...

I had originally planned to buy 225/40/R18 tires that I had found on clearance, but now they're out of stock. So now I either go down to 225/45's or 225/50's on 17" rims, or I get the 235/40/18's that they still have in stock and which are also on clearance. So I'm wondering if a 235mm width...

First off, I have a '09 3 hatch still riding on the factory suspension. I found a killer deal on some 225/45/R17 tires, so I started shopping around for wheels and settled on a set of 17x8's that I like, but they have a 42mm offset. I know the stock offset is 52.5mm and I've read that the...

What are the best tires that you ever had and that you have or will want for you Mazda?

SOLD I'm selling a set of four OEM tires taken off my Mazdaspeed6. They have less than 5,000 miles on them and lots of tread, as you can see in the pic. A new set costs over $900 on Tirerack; I'm asking $300 and hoping for a quick sale to get these out of my garage. Sorry for pic quality; I...

I seem to be burning through the sides of my tires at a almost rediculious rate. Its like a set of tires every year or twice a year.

My car was having some issues recently where the steering wheel started vibrating at about 60mph. It also was pulling slightly to the left on the highway. I thought there may be a balancing and alignment problem so I brought it to NTB to get the tires rotated, balanced and aligned. After I got...
