Brake pads POWER STOP or OEM Mazda
I’ve been really liking my powerstops. $375 for rotors and carbon fiber ceramic pads. Easy install and they’re super quiet. Have yet to really drive them hard but for daily/spirited driving I’m super happy with them.
At 55,XXX miles and still haven’t changed my brakes on 2019 AWD Mazda 3(not as heavy as yours but heavier than a FWD 3) Last service, I was in the green for both sets still, but they said I would likely be in “yellow” by 60-65k. I did want to note—I hear no scraping/squealing and brakes feel relatively strong just not as great as new.
PowerStop Z23 pads are excellent with little to no dust and great bite.
Power stop is a great upgrade, I use the z23 pads.
They’ve been performing great, it can stop much faster. Went with Power Stop Z23 pads.
I got these. Cheap, good quality, good braking and look cool. Power Stop K7175 Front Z23 Carbon Fiber Brake Pads with Drilled & Slotted Brake Rotors Kit
I always get Powerstop Brakes from Amazon. A set of Front & back costs me less than 500-600AED. Previously I used to buy Brembo's (OEM) as costed me 1200 AED for front & Back . I don't see any noticeable performance issues at all. The work the same way.
2015 sedan. I did my brakes last spring. I went with OEM as I found them cheaper than any aftermarket I could find near me and as far as I knew I still had OEM on my car and had lasted me a long time. Zero issues since having them installed, I’m happy.
A $30 set of carbon ceramic powerstop pads will fix that.
The bigger brakes are strong, but the gearbox is obstructive. Steering response is instant and - to your eyes anyway - the MPS corners flat and hard. But wide, high, soft part-bucket seats send the opposite message to your brain , giving the uncomfortable impression the car is rolling in corners.
