Too much camber. You lowered it too much. tires will wear.

Other than that look very nice!

alignment was done right after the install, and has been done again since then, the tire's ont he car are the original OEM tires that came on it in 05, so obviousely there is no wear issue's.


the 626 is lowered on eibach's, and tokiko struts, but i agree, it needs to be alot lower. when i have tsome extra cash, im buying some ksports for my probe, and ill be swapping my coil over set up i allready have on the probe, to the 626.

the mazda6 will be getting rims by the end of this summer. going with black with a deep dish polished lip in a 19

the mazda is in my name, and i make the payments, but she pretty much dominates it. dont let the term 'g/f' through you off, we have been together for 9 years, and own a house together. she owns a explorer that she usually drives, and i drive a 89probe lx as a daily driver. then we also have a built 90 probe GT turbo, a colt GTS turbo hatch, and of course both the mazda's.

u should use a atenza emblem on the front grill instead of the mazda one!

I drove a 626 like that one (but the 4-door sedan and a '89) years ago and it handled excellent out of the box and even made actual sports cars from that time period look silly. All the interior gizmos and design were very cool too. My friends were amazed at the isolating air vents. Very reliable too, I think it was over 300k original power train before my parents sold it. It would take anything I threw at it and I was in HS co that was a lot. Sadly the 626's that came immediately after that generation became softer and more Camry like but looks like Mazda got back on track w/ the 6 intro.

believe it or not, i have a atenza badge, and held that up, along with a normal mazda badge, and this was what i thought worked out the best. plus it match's the 626 now. lol

i currently own a fully built F2T powered 92pgt with a turbonetics t4, a basic modded 89pgt, and my daily drive is a 89 probe lx. ive owned more 1st gen's then most have owned car's! lol

im also a moderator on probetalk. been into probes/mx6's/626's since the 90's. the 626gt was my goal. and im extremely happy with it. even if i never drive it. lol
