#190 of 267 Re: Looking for used tires to buy [joem5] by roadburner Mar 21, 2009 (9:13 am)
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 267 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)

#196 of 267 Mazda3 OEM Tire Replacement Suggestions please by ex_tdier Mar 29, 2009 (10:13 pm)
Pretty soon, I'll be needing to replace my stock Toyto Proxes. They ride hard and suck in all conditions, then again, my Mazda3 doesn't like rain or snow either...but that's another thread   I'm thinking of picking up a set of 4 Michelin - Pilot® Exalto® A/S at Costco. I was thinking of the Nokian WRG2's because they have better rain and snow handling ability then the typical all season tire, but they're also considerably more expensive.   I don't drive hard or very fast, so a good tire that does well in rain and maybe snow. Any thoughts? Replies to this message: mazdazed (Mar 30, 2009 6:59 pm) igozoomzoom (Apr 02, 2009 8:05 am)

Replying to: ex_tdier (Mar 29, 2009 10:13 pm) Check the reviews on the General Altimax HP's. I researched them on Tirerack.com and have decided to go with them to replace my OEM Goodyear's on my Maz 3. The price is right too.
