Brake discs ATE or R1 Concepts

I was more than happy with my R1 Rotors at Sonoma 2 weeks ago. I felt a bit of pulsing when I got the brakes especially hot, but I never had any real fading.

Had German ATE disks - no dust whatever.

hatte auf meinem Golf 4 (Variant, 1.9 pd mit 74kw) nur ATE Powerdisk, um den Verschleiß zu sehen, mit vorrausschauender Fahrweise haben die Scheiben immer über 140tkm gehalten, Beläge um die 70tkm. weiterer Vorteil ist die weiße Beschichtung (nicht abputzen!) am Anfang vorsichtig Bremsen, er kann auf den ersten Fahrten auch qualmen. die verhindert aber auch Rost innen der Bremsscheiben für einen großteil der Zeit.

I went with ATE "Powerdisc" discs and ceramic pads on my e39 530d, they're beautiful brakes.

I’ve ran r1 concepts drilled and slotted rotors for like 3 years now with stoptech pads and never felt the need to upgrade higher than that for just dailying/spirited driving

I run r1 concept rotors with ebc red stuff pads and they work great for me

I mostly use ATE. For some more racing i often use Tarox F2000 rotors and Ferodo DS2500 pads.

I installed R1 Concepts slotted on my 13 R/T years ago. They are better than the brakes that came from the factory.

If you have no interest to do anything other than normal driving r1 concepts will work. If you so much as do a little "spirited driving" they will bake and turn into crappy brownies. And refuse any type of refund even with 500 miles on them. I honestly preferred OEM. They lasted a nice long time, minimal noise, and they were actually really nice on track

I've purchased my brakes and rotors from R1 Concepts. They're not that bad. I went with oem style rotors and ceramic brake pads.
