  1. Past hour
  2. You should also bring a tool to loosen the wheel bolts. I got a tire space saver and a jack, and I also got an extension wrench with several sockets to put in the trunk. Definitely preferable to that four-way cross wheel nut thing.
  3. I got my new Takumi yesterday, however it doesn't have any jack. A jack and space-saving spare wheel will be on their way to me soon. Fitting it with the Bose subwoofer will require some adjustment, though.
  4. Not very essential if you don't have a spare tyre. The used wheel and jack that I purchased on eBay cost me £105.00.
  5. Unfortunately, that is not included. It is possible to buy it as an accessory, although it is somewhat pricey. Try searching on eBay
  6. Good day, U.K. is where I call home. Just two days ago, I purchased a Mazda CX-30 with the 2023 2.0 SkyActiv G Takumi package. I just realised that there is no jack in the trunk of the automobile. In the UK, did this vehicle come with one? Does it usually go missing like this? In the online handbook, it is referenced at position 1, among others.
  7. Yesterday
  8. If they barely last 15,000 miles, it might not be worth it to rotate them. Unfortunately, their unusual breadth of 275 makes them unusable. There is a dearth of reasonably priced alternatives.
  9. My go-to tires for long days on the road are the same, Toyo Open Country. The TPP here has been running for around twelve months. As mentioned before, we are currently at 6/32 with somewhat less than 12,000 miles on the odometer. I have my doubts about their ability to provide the mileage you desire. We've gone above and beyond the recommended three times to rotate and balance the tires and wheels. Let me know if you're keeping anything special from me.
  10. With the 19-inch wheels, I have a preference. 19500 miles in approximately 7 months with all four bearings ranging from 6 to 7/32nds. Here we have the Toyota Open Country. Tires are not terrific, but I expect them to last 40,000 miles.
  11. Simply put, 51 psi is the maximum level that I am aware of. For the majority of my vehicles, I aim for a pressure of 40 psi, even if the tyre manufacturer recommends a maximum of 50 psi. Thank you for responding, though; it might be useful to others.
  12. What sort of claim is this? Your source must be posted. Your vehicle's stability and control will be compromised with higher tyre pressures, particularly those above 51 psi. When it comes to setting the pressure, the engineers at Mazda go to tremendous pains to find the sweet spot between comfort and handling—36 psi—and I'd rather have their word than that of some anonymous YouTuber. Furthermore, I have never heard of an insurance company refusing to pay out because a tyre is too old! I couldn't agree with you more!
  13. Mazda recommends 36 psi. It enhances both safety and wearability. Maximum pressure is 51 psi, not target pressure. Uneven wear and poor grip are consequences of increased pressure. Glue the door decal on.
  14. Yesterday, I watched a video on YT that discussed the link between low tire pressure and early tire deterioration. The driver door label instructs to pump the front and rear tires to 36 psi, however the Toyo tires on my CX-70 have a maximum pressure recommendation of 51 psi. Running a higher pressure reduces the amount of wear and tear on the tire's outer layer, which in turn increases the tire's longevity and fuel efficiency, as demonstrated in the video. Because each tire has a code number that indicates the month and year of manufacturing, the video showed that the tires wear faster when the pressure is lower than what the manufacturer recommends. They recommend getting new tires before the fifth or seventh year on the road since some insurance companies refuse to pay out after an accident involving tires that were supposed to have been replaced by that date. Before you buy tires, find out if they are covered by your insurance (AI suggests 6 years). I tend to agree with the video that inflating them to a pressure greater than 36 psi will make them live longer.
  15. Yeah, the factory-installed tires on them are notoriously bad. A lot of people are noticing it. At around 15,000 miles, you should replace your tires.
  16. Greetings everyone, I returned from Discount Tire just now. With a mileage of somewhat under 12,000, this was the third tyre rotation on our CX-70 TPP. They advise replacing it at 4/32 when the tread depth is 6/32. Does anyone else's OE Toyo tyre tread wear out before the expected time?
  17. Last week
  18. arriving in 2015 with an F02. After chasing some intriguing electrical gremlins on the automobile, I decided to join after hovering for a time. Excited to delve deeper into the wealth of knowledge shared here and, with any luck, make a meaningful contribution where I can. Pleasure to be a part of it.
  19. In a staggered configuration, the back wheels are usually broader.
  20. Just like I mentioned before, some tires provide a more comfortable ride. Learn as much as you can from this and the web You might also try lowering the pressure by one or two psi before you buy the tires. How are the shocks and suspension? I upgraded from 18s on my old E350 coupe to 19s on my new E400 coupe. Although I do agree that the ride is somewhat rougher, I had to replace the worn tyres with Hankooks because the original ones weren't very good. I give them a piss under the table.
  21. Could you tell me who makes the tires? The journey could have been smoother, and my car arrived on Continental around 5 p.m. After switching to Goodyear Assi 5, I felt much more in control and had a much more pleasant ride.Limousines will never be an option, as previously stated. Changes in tyre size are not recommended by Mercedes. The wheels on your vehicle should be the same size and have staggered tires. I briefly experimented with a larger rear tire on my car, but I soon realised that it affected its handling, so I went back to the original size. The automobile is something I really miss having. My best wishes as you resolve the issue
  22. Even with 18-inch wheels and tires, the ride quality won't be limousine quality.
  23. I think it will work out okay. For compression, inner arch, or suspension, the most important thing is to avoid catching the arch lip. Changing the ratio of rotational speed between the front and back axles has a slim chance of causing electronics to malfunction. It is also important to think about the insurance consequences and speedo reading. As I mentioned before, everything should be fine. Just remember that you shouldn't be too upset if the ride comfort remains the same. Before you proceed, be sure the change was worthwhile by taking a large dose of placebo 😁.
  24. If you want to raise the side wall, you should typically lower the tire size so you have almost the same rolling resistance and, as points out, you won't have any problems with the tyre touching the wheel arches or liners.
