Brake discs Zimmermann or POWER STOP
Just did mine with Zimmerman blanks and ATE pads. Love it so far. I’m only daily driving the car
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’m running Zimmerman blanks with EBC redstuff pads, basically stock feel but no dust.
I’ve had Zimmerman rotors and hawk hps 5.0 pads for a few thousand km now. Feels pretty close to stock and my silver prets aren’t caked in dust anymore.
Just replaced my 2018 SE brakes with the PP Zimmerman and Textar kit from FCP Euro. So far it's pretty much identical to stock. Pads will make the difference when it comes to dust. I do like the Zimmermann blanks, so nice to have non-rusty rotors again
I use Zimmerman blanks on my track car and have been doing so for years. They work great, will hold up for numerous weekends, and are fairly inexpensive (free replacements from FCP Euro is also a big bonus).
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.
FWIW - I purchased a complete set of PowerStop Slotted and Cross-Drilled rotors and included pads for my 14 TDI SE along with ECS Stainless brake lines. I also flushed the fluid. No noticeable difference at all. And one disappointment that really bothered me was during an event it felt like the rotors were warping very early on and I was afraid I was going to ruin them for the rest of the event. However, the pulsing settled down as I learned to go easier on them.
