After these many mileage, just get it changed.

The price adjustment due to re implementation of SST is going to bring tyre prices up. Although by right, only NEW supplies at/after 1st September should be affected, but knowing how unscrupulous most of the businesses here, they will raise prices exactly at 1st September despite selling existing stock.

I see, will do a survey of what tyre available for 195/55R16 then replace them soon.

What manufacturer and model tyre is equivalent to Yokohama Advan dB? Last time used it on my other car, reduced lots of road noise.

The new Advan db v502 is out already, so you can just try to find those.

Had the same problem with you. Changed all four tyres to hankook v12e2 205/55/16 using stock rims. can fit but based on my 3 days experience using it, dont really recommend since can feel the car abit swaying and not stable at high speed. Decided to change to wider rims today and can feel better stability when driving.

Mazda engine is great, but noise from suspension and overall soundproofing need improvements. Hope these issues will be ironed out in the next Mazda 3.

That's because the rims are a bit too narrow for the tire width. So even though on paper can still be fitted but it's not ideal anymore, hence earlier I said not really recommended to put 205 tires in just 5.5j rims. That's why also the factory std tires were just 185 and not 195 or even 205.
