Brake discs Brembo or Zimmermann

Brembo Brake discs

I have the same, good feel, stopping power is ridiculous. Careful in the wet though, they really don't like it.

Pros: good feel, ridiculous stopping power
Cons: poor wet performance

I’ve used Zimmerman rotors with Textar pads on my X5 and they’re pretty solid. They do squeak in the cold a lot more than the OE’s do but not that big of a deal to me. Performance wise I haven’t noticed a big difference if I’m honest.

Pros: pretty solid, good performance
Cons: squeak in cold weather
Vehicle: BMW X5

Zimmermann Brake discs

I was recommended Zimmerman Rotors for my 550i by a bmw shop and I've really liked them so far. I've had them on for the past 4 yrs and never had an issue. I bought some autozone rotors once before that warped and rusted super quick.

Pros: long lasting, no issues
Cons: autozone rotors warped
Vehicle: BMW

I have the zimmermans, and I've heard numerous people tell me they've seen and heard of them cracking under heavy heated use. It kinda worries me a little, but they've been solid so far, and I've yet to really roast them... Honnestly if I were to do it again, I would probably go with the brembos even though they may be a little more expensive. whats more important to stopping, is pads. The difference between the stopping power and feel of different pads varries greatly. I've had some heavy carbon kevlar pads that took a long while to warm up but once they were warm grabbed really well, but they were kinda hard for regular street driving. I've used stock pads which pretty much suck but last forever, and I've used some softer sport street pads that wear and dust a little more, but stop far supperior to oters for regular street driving. I've yet to push them to the point of fade, but we'll see where that goes once I've got the suspension and bleeding sorted

Pros: solid so far, better pads important
Cons: heard they crack under heat, would go with Brembos

Bought Brembo UV coated rear rotors to specifically replace Bosch ones with rusty hubs - doesn't look good because clearly visible through the rims. After few rainy days I clearly see rust spots on the Brembo rotor hubs... Very disappointed as this was the reason for replacing in the first place - previous ones (Bosch) were only 1y old.

Cons: rust spots on hubs
