Can anyone comment on the difference and similarities between these two sizes? I would expect better traction but worse ride on the 225/40. Naturally, there are more tire choices at the 225/40 size. And therefore, better prices. What changes can I expect from the car? Pictures of the 225/40...

Does anyone have any opinions on the Kuhmo Ecsta (ASX or SPT) - preferably based upon experience? If your opinion is not favorable, I would appreciate any opinions on summer-only replacements!!! Thanks M

Has anyone adjusted their headlights?? Even though I have a definite line where the beam ends, my beam is not smooth across - kinda like it has a ridge that rises from one side to the other. I have had a hell of a time trying to get the beam level. It almost seems like the headlights have a...

Has anybody out there optioned their buyout and purchased their off-lease MS6???? If so, has anyone been able to negotiate? I know bargaining is an expectation coming out of a lease, but Mazda does not seem to want to negotiate on the price. Anybody have any input??? Thanks!!! M

However, I am a first-time turbo owner. None of my friends have forced-induction cars, either. So I need to know if this sound is normal to the MS6: I can best describe the sound as a "ringing". It begins at a high-idle and is most noticable at normal, non-aggressive driving speeds with the...

What are some forum favorites for online wheel/tire retailers? I would specifically like some steel wheels for the winter, but I am having a hard time finding them online. Any suggestions?? M

In my hunt for winter tires and wheels, I enlisted the online assistace of the Tire Rack's "Winter Wheel and Tire" section. Upon selecting your vehicle, you are shown two choices for wheel/tire packages: 17" = 215/50-17 18" = 225/45-18 I wanted to make sure these are accurate conversions...

I have now passed 1000 miles of ownership with my MS6 and have encountered some moments that make me scratch my head and say "WTF?". Of course some things mentioned below I have no control over. 1. Hot Fenders - has anyone noticed how sometimes the front fenders get extremely warm to the...

For all who live in areas affected by snow: I would appreciate responses regarding winter driving (i.e. snow) and the factory tires on the MS6. Also, anyone who uses alternative wheels and tires for such conditions, what do you use/where did you get them? Thanks everbody!! Matt
