Parts for your 2007 Mazda 3-Brake shoes

2007 Mazda 3 brake shoes — are they used on this model?

Based on technical references, brake shoes are fitted to 2007 Mazda 3 variants that use rear drum brakes, and not fitted to variants with rear disc brakes. The Mazda3 (BK series, 2004–2009) Workshop Manual includes a “Rear Drum Brake” section for models equipped with drums and a separate “Rear Disc Brake” section showing a caliper‑integrated parking brake with no drum‑in‑hat shoes.

Haynes and similar service manuals echo the same split: base models with rear drums use shoes
