Owner reviews for brake pads

EBC Brake pads

Get OE blank rotors, a set of your preferred pads and some good high temp brake fluid. (I really like EBC yellow stuff for daily, autocross, and light track stuff.) Unless you're really going hard on the track, there's not a real need for slotted or drilled. Even when I did hard track stuff I still just rocked the blank rotors most of the time. They still held up well and were cheaper to replace too.

Pros: good performance, cheap

ATE Brake pads

Regular carbon ceramic brake pads, from Ate and I presume also Brembo, are better than normal pads. Same stopping power but much less heat generation and brake dust.

Pros: less heat, less dust

OEM Mazda Brake pads

My cx9 was at 3mm on the rears at 52k. Get a caliper compression kit and it yourself. It's not very hard. I did my rears a month back in my driveway for $130.

Pros: easy DIY repair
Cons: rear pads worn at 52k
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 52000 km

Rating 1.0

70,000 miles on the X because the emergency brake pad fell out. They told me to redo the whole set at $2,000 since the ebrake was out and it wasn’t covered under warranty.

Cons: emergency brake failed, expensive repair
Mileage: 70000 km
