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.
I replaced brakes on my wife’s CX5 for about $200 in PowerStop parts. Easy peasy.
Akebono Euro pads
I own a BM Mazda 3 and I changed them one year and half ago and they work as expected (at the dealership, it was expensive).
I use powerstop ceramic and love them. I also have the slotted and dried rotors. Far superior than stock.
2032 fit fine in mine as well. I noticed the remote lock button was not working from more than a few car lengths when cold and decided it was time before I ran into other issues.
I just did brakes on my 2017 330. I got Brembo rotors, and Akebono pads. They're excellent brakes, akebono pads are highly recommended, and Brmebo holds its own.
I’ve had the powerstop pro ceramics and their rotors since I bought my JK in 2012. Replaced with same, never an issue
I just changed them out for zimmerman blanks and akebono pads. I will likely do the same for the front to decrease some of the dust as well. Slightly less initial bite on the pads, but still good brake feel.
They have been great. Quiet, I like the pedal feel, they stop the truck well, no dust.
