Review on Power Stop Z23-1711 Z23 Evolution Sport Carbon Fiber Infused Ceramic Brake Pad with Hardware: Superior Performance and Durability! by Travis Vasquez

My front pads wore out in just 4 months after 8500 km. They wore unevenly (the inner pads wore faster than the outer pads) and I had to push harder than the original pads to keep the car from rolling forward at traffic lights (causing severe daily leg fatigue). They also stopped farther than my original Mazda pads for the same stopping power. I would not recommend these pads - in fact I want my money back. After replacing them with original Remsa pads, it gave back instant braking feel, no stickiness, and it required a lot less force at stop to keep the car from rolling. Luckily I didn't have any crashes on the Z23 as I was very unhappy with the pad's performance.
