Rating 4.0

I installed some new brakes and after looking at all the options I went with FCP’s bundle of Zimmerman drilled rotors and EBC red pads. I’m normally not a fan of drilled as my first set of drilled rotors back in 1996 warped and since then I’ve gone with just slotted. Since the mass is so great on the 345mm rotors I felt there would be enough mass to stay true/straight. FCP’s lifetime warranty helped seal the deal on these brakes.

Pros: lifetime warranty
Cons: drilled rotors

I'm running their sport pads with Zimmerman cross drilled rotors. The Zimmerman rotors are significantly cheaper for the same consumable. Very happy with my setup and I would repeat it in the future

Pros: very happy with setup
Cons: rotors cheaper
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I've used Zimmerman + ATE combos on my ... for daily use. They are totally fine. Good stuff. Couple weeks ago I wanted to try something different on the R so I got stoptech slotted and EBC red. They feel good so far. Hopefully low dust.

Pros: good for daily use

I've done the Centric e-coat rotors and ceramic pads from Rock Auto on 4 of my vehicles over the years and have been very happy. Rotors don't turn into a ball of rust after getting wet once, let alone thru a salty Midwest winter. Pads seem to have good bite and consistent stopping power (1 set was on my old Mazda3) and no noise or dust.

Pros: good bite, no noise, no dust

I switched over to Zimmerman x-drilled, SS lines, Mintex Red Boxes and bled the system with DOT 4 fluid. The same corse I never noticed any fade but I also did not notice any BETTER braking performance either.

Pros: no fade
Cons: no better performance
Vehicle: Volkswagen
