    Which brand of rear rotors and pads would y'all recommend as higher quality parts?

    Hey everybody, I'm looking at replacing my rear rotors and brake pads and was wondering if anyone could recommend a brand and specific replacement products. I'm considering doing the work myself, but I'm a bit of a noob at this. I have replaced the rear shocks myself, since the stock ones...

    Any better brake pads than Hawk HPS?

    Replaced Brake Pads and Rotors on 2006 Mazda5 Sport...my experience (very long)

    I just spent the better part of a day (start to finish) doing a brake pad and rotor replacement on my 2006 Mazda5 sport. It had 54,252 miles on it. The front rotors were badly warped (another issue that I will not get into here). They had been turned once, and were okay for awhile after that...

    Brake troubles, and need help buying new parts

    Last summer I needed to replace all four rotors and pads and, finding myself in the US one weekend, had the job quoted and completed. Trouble is the mechanic could sling a wrench but not count to four - he only replaced the fronts. Still that fixed all the issues and out of laziness I dropped...
