So I'm looking to replace my brakes/ rotors and was interested in possibly getting better performance from my brakes, so I started searching around for options.
What I've seen for the most part is OEM rotors and Hawks HPS seems to be the way to go, but I'm looking for something more I think.
While lurking the mazda3forums, I noticed people doing MazdaSpeed3 front brake swaps. I think I'll be going with this for the front brakes.
As for the rear, I came across and interesting thread, someone swapped the Mazda 5 rotors and rear brakes onto a Mazda3. This offers bigger rear brakes and of course bigger rotors to fill the wheel (looks nicer :3).
My question is, what's the process for doing the front brake swap? Has anyone heard of the Mazda 5 brake swap, is it worth it? Also how much would either of these two options cost roughly? And finally, in the winter I run 15 inch steelies, how would the clearance be with either of these swaps?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
