I too use PowerStops in my 2015 Mazda 3 s GT and 2017 CX-9 GT. Second set in my Mazda 3. They are superior to the OEM and cost ~$200 + tax for both axels including pads, rotors, all hardware and lubricant. Surfacing the old rotors is not worth it.

Pros: superior to OEM, easy job

Cons: OEM inferior

Vehicle: Mazda 3
