Best OE quality option for pads and rotors?

[physhy]

Just had to replace a whole bunch of suspension parts on my 08 Mazda 3 and need breaks as well. Would love to buy Mazda OEM but because of the suspension parts budget is tight. I’ve got pads and rotors from carquest before but extremely dissatisfied.

I looked at rockauto for the best option as close as oem but there’s too many brands I have not used or heard of before. After a search in the part info it says that Power Stop are OE quality?

Thanks for any recommendations and info

Go with MaxBrakes; www.maxbrakes.com

They are in Markham for pick-up or call for delivery.

I've ben using the Elite XDS system for years. Good quality, no issues and no brake dust.

They've gone up in price a tad since I bought them last time 4 years ago, now $267 -4 rotors and pads. But they have several lower kits.

I highly recommend them.

Has anyone ordered from RockAuto for brake rotors and pads OEM equivalent for 2014 Mazda3 GT?

Max has several styles to choose from: Style, Value, Comfort, Performance.

I have but it's been a long while.

I think the last time I bought brakes it was from maxbrakescanada.com. Again, don't recall which style... probably the Comfort ones. They work well enough, but I did find them squeaky. (Squeak went away now that the car mostly sits... rust build up on the rotors will do that!)

Another local place I have used is autopartsway.ca - they have a decent selection with free shipping.

I tend to go more higher performance (higher temps pads) - Hawks HPS 5.0 for auto cross and track
