Replying to: shipo (Mar 19, 2009 8:32 pm) Shoot, I'll have to look at other cars or wait & wear the tires out.

Replying to: everwinter (Mar 19, 2009 7:55 pm) I have a brand new set over my garage RSA Eagles. I took them off because they are only good for dry pavement. I bet there are alot of people that have them on here.              I'm keeping them because I'm dumping the Mazda. I'm waiing for a few more 2010 models to get here and the fact I only have 4700 miles on the car.               Hey, check Mazda out I think they switched to another OEM tire.OOOppps no your tires won't fit.

Replying to: joem5 (Mar 20, 2009 3:36 pm) I took the Eagle RS-As off my Mazda3 after only 714 miles and managed to get a decent price for them from someone who lives in the south and didn't really care about their lousy winter traction. In their place I mounted a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/Ss, which have performed exquisitely and still look brand new after 10,000 miles.   When the Michelins wear out (I'm projecting at I'll get at least 40,000 miles out of them), I'm going to be hard pressed to justify replacing them with anything else as they're just too good on my car.   Best regards, Shipo

Replying to: joem5 (Mar 20, 2009 3:42 pm) I switched to the Pirelli PZero Nero M+S all-seasons; they are pretty good street tires. If I continue to track the car I'm going with a set of Dunlop Direzza Star Specs on some lightweight wheels.
#191 of 273 Steel Rims on 08.5 Mazda 3 I new Value for Winter by joem5 Mar 23, 2009 (11:07 am)
Can't find them on Tire Rack. I found some locally,but they said TPMS will work. What do you think.                   The cheapest alloys were $115.00 each,and then $45.00 shipping., 4 steel rims $380.00.W/o hubcaps    Ya, I know get the alloys, but I'm hopin' to get rid of Mazda.It cost me $160.00 Sullivan Tire (Shipo) to take off RSA Eagles and put the Dunlops on. Thats alot of Guiness money.So, if I don't sell,I have to get wheels. Replies to this message: shipo (Mar 23, 2009 6:11 pm) orca3 (Mar 26, 2009 5:04 am) joem5 (Mar 26, 2009 10:59 am)

Replying to: joem5 (Mar 23, 2009 11:07 am) I poked around on TireRack a bit and like you, I was unable to find any 17" wheels for a Mazda3 (although I did find 16" steelies for $55 per wheel). Given that this is the time of year when winter tire packages at TireRack are slim pickin's, it's hard to tell if they simply don't carry a 17" wheel, or whether they're just sold out for the season.   As for the what Sullivan Tire charged you to swap rubber, OUCH! I had mine done at my dealership a week after I bought the car and they only charged me $96.   Best regards, Shipo

Replying to: joem5 (Mar 23, 2009 11:07 am) $160.00 is alot(price gouging) - Tulley VW Mazda charged me $80.00 to take  my Michelin xice's off and put the Bridgestone summer tires on(including  balancing) and I get a $25.00 gift card from Mazda for a promotion they have  going on non warranty service done before 03/31/09. Was this the Sullivan  Tires in New Hampshire? Replies to this message: joem5 (Mar 26, 2009 10:59 am)

Replying to: orca3 (Mar 26, 2009 5:04 am) No, Sullivan Tire Scarborough, ME. I'm never going back.
