Brake discs Bosch or POWER STOP
Hey, 2 weeks ago I bought Bosch QuietCast rotors from jeffrey bezos...FRONTS pair were $120 ($60 each) and rears pair was $60 ($30 each). Also bought Bosch brake pads from Tirerack for $45 fronts and $29 rears.
Replaced everything with PowerStop, no issues since.
Buy a set of PowerStops and call it a day.
I’ve done this on both my 6s and never looked back.
Switch to powerstops and you are set for the next 50k miles (depending on your driving style/conditions). My OEM rotors warped around 16k miles, dealer resurfaced and it warped again at 20 something. Replaced with another new set of OEM rotors which too warped before my car hit 30k miles. I followed other lads on mazda6club forum and switched to Powerstops and it is still going strong at 62k miles.
I got rear Bosch rear discs for my DS3 (with bearings and ABS rings) for £39 each delivered best deal I could get at ECP was £91 each best part was they were delivered by ECP
I use Powerstop rotors with akebono pads and works better than OEM in my opinion. I don't like Powerstop pads because they have a break in procedure whereas akebono does not.
I put them on my truck first for better braking while towing and was so impressed with them that I put a set on my wife's rx350 as well just because they feel so much better than stock, IMO. They are outstanding. They just feel more robust/solid under heavy braking vs. stock.
Powerstop rotors and pads. Stocks where starting to squeak so upgrade time. Definitely a difference in stopping power
I put in the powerstop z36 drilled and slotted rotors last spring, and I think they're pretty darn good. Great stopping power, and make me feel totally in control of towing my car trailer.
I would advise from purchasing Power Stop drilled and slotted rotors and pads. Purchased and installed them. They told me the upgraded rotors and pads would reduce the brake fade I experience from driving a 1999 4Runner with a 3 inch Lift and 32s in the mountains. Initially I saw an increase in stopping power and endurance. Now, 6 months later, I have been experiencing horrible vibrations while braking and at highway speeds. I replaced my pads which were already worn out. Still experienced horrible vibrations. Today I replaced the rotors and have finally been able to brake smoothly and safely. The Power Stop pads wore out in 6 months and the rotors got warped.
