2013 mazdaspeed3 centric rotors with painted hats
I've had good luck with either Centric GCX or Power stop Evolution Geo-met coated.
Centric GCX.
Centric (stock) rotors work great. I'm on ferodo ds2500 pads and love them
I've had great luck with Centric Premium coated (blank) rotors. I put them on everything.
I've always had good luck with the coated Centric rotors I've gotten from RA. No warping, good corrosion resistance.
I've done the Centric e-coat rotors and ceramic pads from Rock Auto on 4 of my vehicles over the years and have been very happy. Rotors don't turn into a ball of rust after getting wet once, let alone thru a salty Midwest winter. Pads seem to have good bite and consistent stopping power (1 set was on my old Mazda3) and no noise or dust.
Had great luck with the Centric Premium rotors and the Power Stop Z23 pads, which have good bite and no dust.
I have the same pad compound but I end up just buying some cheap Centric blanks. The rotors end up taking in so much heat that they'll end up with a crack here and there. I just end up tossing the rotors and pads, they're relatively cheap so it doesn't bother me much.
BMW OEM rotors after 4 years and 35k miles. Junk build quality now
