We have an 06 with 70K mi...OEM tires were comped after 20K for vibration issues...tried the Yokos...I agree they are Yo-so-so...not great but better then the goodyears. Except the inside sidewalls are all cracked now...so the tire dealer is recommending kellys ...Any opinions. I can get the 4 kellys mounted out the door for $450.00

We have a 2005 Mazda 6 V-6 5 speed, 117,000 miles. I have a second set of wheels and use Blizzaks for the winter, and General Exclaim UHP's for the summer. I am very happy with the Exclaim UHP's. Quiet, great handling dry and wet. (not snow tires, however). Got them from the Tire Rack originally, but a local store can match their price (had to replace two of them because of damage). I did a track day at Road America and an autocross with these tires.
You can explore the great handling of the first gen 6 with these tires.

Most of the tire with an off center belt will lead to one side because the location of the belt shifts more weight to one side of the tread than the other.
