Owner reviews for brake discs

I really like my galfers, but they were some money.

I just put a set of R1 Concepts drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads. Huge improvement over OEM.

I'm not a track guy, but centric premium blanks are what I use based on s2ki recs, if your feeling fancy, I've heard good things of girodisk 2 piece rotors. Obviously, tracking you'll want to replace blanks more often, but centric blanks are cheap and plenty.

I run a Galfer floating front disc with sintered Galfer pads on my 401. It doesn't seem to stop any faster but feedback is better and the bike feels a lot more stable under hard braking. Would recommend.

I use Zimmerman rotors and OEM pads from fcpeuro. I like the bite the oem pads have compared to ceramic. More brake dust yes, but I want a car to stop as fast as possible.

I've run Zimmerman rotors with EBC red stuff ceramic pads. No complaints.

I bought both OEM and advics aftermarket from rock auto. 10/10 would buy advics aftermarket again.

I have Zimmerman rotors with Textar pads on my 19 alltrack. I’m actually looking at these for my Tiguan too!

I changed my rotors and pads a year ago and got ebc sport rotors and hawk hps 5.0 pads. I absolutely do not recommend ebc rotors as mine have already warped and make a grinding noise. The hawk pads are good, but the brake feel is linear so if you prefer a firmer pedal feel I think ebc red or yellow is a better bet.

Ordered zimmerman f brake discs and they were not riveted tight enough. The two-piece brake disc made a clicking noise when braking at low speed.
