Hey all. I'm looking for a brake kit for the Mazda 3. I tried Brembo's Gran Turismo, but there is no way to make them work without a rim with around a 30mm offset and then the wheels stick out too far and you have to modify the fenders.
I do a lot of city driving in my Mazda 3 and my job requires me to spend 6 to 8 hours in my car five days a week. The stock brakes can't handle this and I'm turning my rotors every 12 to 15 thousand miles and replacing them every 25 - 30.
I've been poking around various forums and have read that you can put the Speed 3 brakes on a normal 3. Would this be worth trying? Are there other aftermarket brakes as well that I could try that don't require the clearance that the Brembos do? I'd like to find some brakes that can handle the driving I do.
Thanks all.
