Hi Guys, So I'm driving my '07 Mazda 5 sport cross country next week. Texas to DC. I want to tow my motorycle; a Honda CBR1100xx Blackbird. Has anyone successfully towed a motorcycle with their Mazda 5? otherwise I may have to rent a U-haul with a car carrier attachment....cheers!

bodegabay, what's the measurment on the rack you tested?

I know, I know. I ran the numbers twice. Anyways, I'll post an update on my next fill up.

Put on 4 new Bridgestone Ecopia's.....newest eco friendly tire.....Got 46 MPG on a 80 mile round trip burn and turn....will post more numbers after I've had a chance to break them in. Mine is a 07 Mazda 5 with 49k on the odo.

OMG Lumens, So I just bought a used 2007 Mazda 5 with 49,000 miles. The previous owner bought 4 new Sumitomos HTR Z IIIs. They are warrantied out to 40k miles, but after less than 20k on them, the tires were horribly cupped and down to the wear bar. Maybe a bad batch. Maybe he didn't rotate...

ah, disregard....i clicked on the text and realized it was a link to the thread you reference. I understand. But still, I don't want to go to the expense of getting a camber plate....

Great write ups! I know i'll have to replace my front pads in a few thousand miles, so will save this thread for future reference. I'll also be sure to buy some sand paper.

thanks, but our mazda 5 doesn't have a camper adjustment unless you add the plate...did you get this from the mazda 3 forum?

sorry; i just tried reposting into the suspension forum

Hi folks, Does anyone know what they've successfully used for their Toe suspension settings? I'm looking for set of metrics I can provide the Firestone technician this week. I've done some extensive searching and can't find any specific recommendations for the toe suspension settings online...
