@DOBIEMKZ thanks for the info. I am also trying to find out how to connect my cam to a power bank. Dun think mine can. I am not recording for 2 days straight but just morning and afternoon for Sat and Sun. Wondering if that would drain my car battery alot or not. 

Be careful. There are articles that the power banks causes fire in the car due to overheat. 

Just go for a better car cam like the iRoad. For mine it will record overnight till I get to the car at 8am next morning from 6pm when I parked.

+1. Still not comfortable with the idea of having external batteries, especially with our hot climate.

For continuous recording, I've been using voltage regulators to help cut off from the car battery, for both my previous and current cars. So far don't see any issue in terms of car bettery life, easily last 2-3 yrs.

For me I set my IROAD car can to cut off when the ride’s voltage drops below 12v

@Discoburg nope. Mine is just the standard 1.5L HB 2018 model. I am looking to upgrade my stock rims of 16” to 17” but worry about the lag and much higher fuel consumption. Hence want to hear from everyone here if they have made this upgrade? 🙂

Don’t worry bro .. aftermarket rim usually lighter than the stock rim. At the end of the day weight probably around the same. I don’t think your fc will change much with just 1 size rim upgrade. Main thing that affect fc is actually the route you travel (whether there is a lot of stop and go)

Hello All,

Have anyone upgraded their stock 16” rims to 17” for their mazda 3? Do you feel the lag and increase in fuel consumption? 
 

Seeking advice and comments. Thanks in advanced! 🙂 

Don't understand your question. The larger the rim, the heavier the rim and tyres. It would consume more fuel to move them.

Generally no problem.
Yoiu can key in car seat cushion mazda 3 to narrow down the results specific to the car.
It's only the feel of those seat covers/cushion that can't be judged from the photos.

How flexible are the listed prices for the Mazda 3?

Intending to book one soon but it seems like demand is higher than supply and they're not willing to budge much.
