Brake discs Zimmermann or Centric

My current brake pad and rotor are a centric blank and csg sprint C1s, and they’re great. Good bite, nice pedal modulation, great cold performance, and won’t overwhelm a daily grind tire. My previous were centric drilled rotors and pmu club racer pads. They were fucking amazing, but on a commute they were totally overkill (and fun) and I felt like they only made sense when I ran R comps. Otherwise it was ABS lights all day.

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.

I replaced my pads and rotors a year ago with Akebono pads and Zimmerman rotors, no complaints at all.

I've had good luck with either Centric GCX or Power stop Evolution Geo-met coated.

Centric GCX.

Zimmerman rotors and Akebono ceramic pads. Great combo and affordable. Low dust.

Centric (stock) rotors work great. I'm on ferodo ds2500 pads and love them

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.

I just bought zimmerman cross-drilled rotors for the fronts. Cross-drilled rotors are lighter but do not dissipate heat better (less material to soak up heat). Stock or slotted rotors are best for soaking up heat.
