2008 MAZDA 5 GT ANNOYING BAD TIRE NOISE ( TOYO TIRES ). *TR

MAZDA 5 PREMATURE TIRE WEAR ON TOYO TIRES. THE MAZDA HAS 24712 MILES, BUT ONLY ~15000 ARE ON THE TOYO TIRES DUE TO RUNNING SNOW TIRES ALL WINTER AND THERE IS CUPPING AND INNER TIRE WEAR. ALIGNMENT WAS CHECKED AT MAZDA AND REAR WAS SLIGHTLY OUT OF SPEC (-0.03). MAZDA DENIES EVER HEARING OF A TIRE PROBLEM ON THEIR MAZDA 5S, WHEN THE TOPIC IS ALL OVER THEIR WEB. WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR THE SALEMAN ASSURED ME MAZDA HAD RESOLVED THE PREMATURE TIRE WEAR THAT HAD BEEN SEEN IN THE UK WHERE THE MAZDA 5 APPEARED BEFORE THE USA. *TR

PREMATURE TIRE WEAR IS A HUGE PROBLEM. HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT 2 FACTORY TOYO TIRES AT 8,777 MILES (SEP 2008) DUE TO EVEN WEAR THAT PLACED THE TIRES IN THE "RED". REPLACED THE SAME TWO FRONT TIRES (WHICH WERE FALKEN) AT 24,437 MILES (JULY 2009) BECAUSE OF EVEN TIRE WEAR THAT PLACED THE TIRES IN THE "RED". I AM NOW ON MY THIRD SET OF TIRES AT ONLY 24,500 MILES. BOTH TIMES THAT TIRE REPLACEMENT OCCURRED, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL MAZDA DEALERSHIP FOR ALIGNMENT CHECK AND TO VERIFY WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE ABNORMAL, PREMATURE WEAR IS. BOTH TIMES THE ALIGNMENT WAS NOT OFF AND THERE WAS NO DETERMINING CAUSE FOR THE PREMATURE WEAR OF THE FRONT TWO TIRES.*TR

VAN HAS 15,000 MILES AND IS APPROX 14 MONTHS OLD. VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR IN THE FRONT AND TIRE CUPPING IN THE REAR, CREATING EXCESSIVE ROAD/TIRE NOISE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE CABIN. *TR
