Default front and rear brake pads and rotors?

Hello, a new member here. I want to replace front and rear brakes on 60,000 2013 Mazda 3 and was looking for a place to buy them from. What are good online sellers for these?

And also, what brands should I look into if I am looking for good quality parts for regular everyday family commuting -- I mean not for car racing or anything like this?

I mean what brands should I look into so than replacement parts are of comparable quality to the original? Would this one be it?

Thanks, h.

Those look like they would work just fine, I have seen some drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads for like $150 free shipping I will probably buy for my 2010 mazda 3 2.5L.

I personally like and have been running the EBC Green Stuff pads. I noticed a difference from stock immediately.

Pads like (but not exclusively limited to) EBC Green Stuff and good quality blank rotors will give you the best stopping power, going with slotted and/or drilled bling rotors will come at the expense of some stopping power and fade resistance. For my cars, no bling; some folks feel the look of drilled and/or slotted outweighs the best stopping power.
