Replying to: Boricua6 (Jan 31, 2009 9:51 pm)  ). If you decide to get rims get either 20x7.5 or 20x8. Honestly I think it handles better with the 20s than the 18s. I'll post pics tonight since I'm at work right now

09 Mazda 6 with 20" rims (may get 22s next year ). I need lowering springs now.

According to Automotive news, some 29,000 '09 Mazda6's (which I think would be all of them sold at this point) are being recalled for a possibly fault in the outside door handle. Something about the fit not being quite right, causing the handle to not close all the way with the potential being there for the door to fly open on it's own. There is one case of that, in Canada.

Replying to: lpmiller (Feb 16, 2009 5:08 pm) Some vehicles have already been repaired at the Ports. My 6s GT is within that VIN Range so is one of those affected. I have not had the problem described though - yet.
