tires

*MZ3* Hey everyone, I managed to snag a set of 18x8 +30 g35 stocks to put on my MS3. I was looking for a tire size that can get me some poke and not be as thick, but still functional. I got the rims for a real good deal and plan on getting them painted bronze to go with my titanium gray base...

[Admins: please don't move this message to the tire forum!] Last week Colorado received its first significant snow storm of the season. We got three inches on the first day, then another 3-5 inches depending on location. In a 24 hour period I got to experience driving on thick tread ATS tires...

Hi everyone, I just bought a 2003 Protege5 on CL. I'm embarrassed to admit I didn't do a whole lot of checking before I bought -- I drove it, and looked around (in the dark) to make sure, like, the headlights worked. I liked that it was manual, that it had a sunroof, and that it was a...

Rims are in good shape (no curb rash). Tires are in very good shape with lots of tread left. These were outstanding in snow and were actually very good on dry pavement.. in fact they were better than my all-season grand touring tires. Sadly, my Protege5 is no more, so these need a new home. Can...

All gone

So these vibrations have been getting really annoying, it's at just about any speed, worse at higher speeds and around corners, no noise just vibrations and a distinct rotating sound, I replaced all brake pads and rotors and one caliper, drilled and slotted rotors, ceramic pads, and new oem...

Hey everyone, first post here. Thanks for all your help. My daughter bought a Mazda 2 and is up in Bangor, ME. She has stock wheels and all season tires on now, and I want to find rims for winter tires, and was wondering if wheels from any other car might fit. Was wondering about a Ford...

Whatsup whatsup, I haven't been on here in a loooong time. Just blew out a tire from a pothole yesterday, and 2 other tires have bubbles in them. NJ roads for you! My rims are 16x7 Motegi MR116, with a +40 offset I believe. The tires I have now are 205/45/R16, but these roads EAT my tires, so I...

Hi everyone, today the front tire on the car had a blow out at the what looks like the valve stem which is connected to the TPMS. The tpms sensor got destroyed and needs to be replaced. We need to buy a new OEM one of aftermarket. Anyone have any recommendations? Does anyone have information on...

Dear all, It's been few months my 2009 CX9 (103K) has developed a wiggle when I turn right... But not always and that's the rub. At first I thought it was the tires, so I hoped the wiggle will be gone when i put my set of 4 winter tires... It did not. Brought the car to Mazda, took it for a...

Hey guys, I'm looking at getting a new set of tires in the near future for my P5. The ones I've seen the most positive reviews for are the Kumho Ecsta 4X's and ASX's. Problem is - none of the tire companies in the area carry those in-stock. So, would it be good to get a different-sized tire, or...

Hey I was in contact with a guy from this site and he stopped replying to me recently. I found out I have a bent rim and was looking for anyone who might have swapped some aftermarket rims with the stock and have them laying around. I have a 2003 p5, they are the 16" alloy rims and really...

Subject says it all. I've gone on long trips before where I'll be away in remote areas of the USA and away from cities for days. I'd like to get a full size wheel + tire and store it in the space where the OEM spare is at. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm assuming the OEM spare is a little...

(Repost from tires/suspension, sorry if someone is upset, just trying to get responses from you knowledgeable people) First off, I have driven a few different mazda cars over the years. I got the CX-5 about a year ago and just hit 4k miles. So, I drove on the highway last week and was having...

First off, I have driven a few different mazda cars over the years. I got the CX-5 about a year ago and just hit 4k miles. So, I drove on the highway last week and was having some difficulty controlling the car side to side. At anywhere from 50-70MPH I feel it pull to the left or the right...
