I am the proud co-owner of a Black 2008 Mazda5. Living within the Snowbelt here in Canada (Ottawa Region) and getting some pretty crazy winter conditions, there is a definite need for snow tires on our vehicles. Needless to say that within the Province of Quebec (where I live), it has become mandatory to outfit your vehicule with snow tires effective next fall. I would never ride without so it does not change anything for me.
I spent some good coin on a set of Nokian HAKKAPELIITA 5's - OMG! What a tire it is!

I will most likely outfit my 06 Impreza with these same tires next year (currently outfitted with Toyo Observe G-02's)
My real question is that although I was successful at changing to the winter tires - but I was not real comfortable with the Jack placement as it just did not seem obvious to me where to place. I kept it to locations under the frame itself - but was hoping someone had some suggestions or even images of where to place the Jack.
Just want to ensure I am ready for spring to get the OEM's back on!
Thanks
Trevor.
