I went with the powerstop z26, i think, carbon ceramic pads and drilled and slotted rotors all around for about 550 dollars from autozone. Fit and finish were perfect and did all four corners in my driveway in a couple of hours. The brake in procedure is very simple and they work very well. Zero brake vibrations and feels so much better.
I did the entire powerstop front and rear kit, has worked great, 0 issues in roughly 20k miles.
i have had powerstop on my car for the last year and a bit, no complaints, brakes are still good for dailying but with more bite when you jam down on the pedal
I use the HD Powerstop with vented rotors, front and rear. I tow a trailer. They exceed the life of OEM pads. And stop well.
I took it out on a twisty road for about 40 miles, and did some hard stops. Seems to have resolved the issue. I read somewhere that these brakes need time for bed settling. I will say, they do stop impressively well. The factory stuff was underwhelming.
I did Power Stops because when I got them we're slightly cheaper with a rebate. Haven't had any problems with them.
'22 3.3t SP, with the brembos, bought the F&R Kit, been loving the brakes now. Definitely better than stock after the pads have warmed up.
At 34k miles I have replaced my front brake pads with “Power Stop Z23-2275 Evolution Sport” and it is ten times better than the factory original brakes. If you own a Turbo engine, do yourself a good and replace front pads (at least) asap.
i remember hearing a guy complain about his cx5 eating through brakes, but the cx5 is the same car as my mazda3, and my mazda3 has seen 70,000km for its rear brake pad/ 90,000km for the fronts, and I drive a mix of city/highway.
Powerstop ceramic. When I got my 2016 2SS I couldn't stand the brembo pads. Horrible dusting.
