Best Brake discs for Volkswagen Golf

I’d take Zimmerman everyday of the week and twice on Sunday.

For rotors, you’re lighting money on fire if you get anything other than a set of non coated blanks. You aren’t going fast enough, or running long enough sessions to get them so hot that you need drilled and slotted in an attempt to drop every degree you can off the heat sinks, especially if you aren’t pushing for the full session. A quick browse on RockAuto shows that the cheapest drilled and slotted is just under x3 the price of a Raybestos blank. You can warp a set every weekend and still be way ahead (I promise you won’t warp a set every weekend unless you’re abusing the brakes).

Zimmerman plain discs are great.

Why not go brembo 18z you’ll have to buy rotors anyways. Then you just need pads, lines and some hardware. No special brackets for the front. I did the swap on my mk6 golf and love it

2021 Macan brand new from Porsche ,front brake caliper upgrade grade with new DBA rotors and pads with sensor, and braded brake lines that all work with the R. All done a month ago with paper work.

Go with the Giro's and leave them on permanently. Better cooling and braking and cheaper to replace just the discs (2 piece rotor) on future replacement.

For example my Golf Alltrack needs front brakes, so I bought Golf R front calipers, which are bigger, and then drilled Brembo rotors, and ceramic OEM pads.

Zimmermann Rotors / IS2000 Pads

The previous owner had a brand new set of front and rear pads and rotors that came with the car when I bought it. Raybestos brand, assuming he bought them off Rockauto. Anyways, front went together no problem but the rear calipers needed pressed in to fit new the pads.

I keep hearing my brakes squeal when I drive and it's really bothering, so I'm trying to figure out what could be causing it or if it's something I have to deal with. I bought a Zimmermann kit with Textar semi metallic pads. My buddy thinks I should've removed the Coat Z anticorrosive off the rotors before installing but it says on their website it's made to be installed with it on. The only thing I can think of is maybe I didn't lube the moving surfaces enough or I need to do a better job bedding them in.
