Mazda parts reviews

I haven’t gotten my MYLR yet, but on my CX-5 I did a ton of research and the Bridgestone Weatherpeak edged out CC2 on many fronts.

I drove through some bad winter storms on them and they’re a beast. My MPG was also not affected, or were barely affected (like 0.2-0.4mpg less), compared to the Toyo stock tires.

yes on my 2016 they only lasted about 30k , replaced them with Michelin defenders they were still good at 106k when i traded it in for a 2022 CX-9 Signature. Next year will be replacing it with the Michelin again

I put a set of 4 weatherpeaks on our FWD Mazda 3 and I have been very pleased. Quiet, smooth, surprising good in the snow (especially for fwd). And great in dry and rain so far too. Would absolutely buy again.

Akebono have been better for my 6 than the OEM. OEM pads are not all the same. They may meet the same minimum spec but not all are top tier. For example the rear brake pads on my 6 OEM were great and were made by TRW. the last set of OEM rear pads were from another manufacturer and are dusty and wear fast. My recent front OEM pads are the same. I'm going back to Akebono pads when the weather is better

I have an MX-5 with that engine, Mazda uses Castrol Edge 0w20 but you can use a heavier oil and sime say it reduces wear. The purpose of the 20 weight is fuel economy.

You could do another oil and filter change to see if it was that or if the oil was just a coincidence.

They performed admirably, especially for the price. To my ears they were quieter than the factory Dunlops, and they definitely lasted longer. I replaced them after around 45,000 miles (~72,000 km since I see you are a northern neighbor) because of a sidewall bubble, but that was courtesy of a massive pothole rather than any sort of defect. There was still tread life remaining.

Been through a few mild winter weather snow storms on the factory Toyos. They're ok but far from confidence inspiring on any kind of hill. Even getting up my driveway was a challenge.

We didn’t get any cracks in the few years we had a CX-30 but it’s definitely on the softer side as far as hardness goes. There were so many small nicks like any and all debris would sandblast it.

'22 CX-30. Got a chip in my windshield about 3 months after buying it. I do a lot of highway driving and try to avoid driving behind big trucks that kick up a lot of debris but sometimes its unavoidable.
