Brake discs Zimmermann or Detroit Axle

Zimmermann Brake discs

I put about 4k miles on the Zimmerman front rotors + Hawks HPS 5.0 so far. There is still a little squealing coming from the setup. Very small. Pretty sure the pads are the reason. Not the rotors. Lots of people are using thre Zimm rotors here in Quebec Canada. And noise isssue isn't something that comes in the reviews.

Pros: rotors, no noise issues
Cons: little squealing
Mileage: 6437 km

+1 for Zimmerman rotors. They are great and resist against rust better than the oem discs. I’m currently on HPS5.0 and Zimmerman at front. Braking power is great. No dust almost.

Pros: great braking power, resist rust
Cons: some squealing noise

I just installed Zimmerman rotors with the stoptech pads upfront and ate ceramic pads for the rear. Performance has been excellent for a street driven car. Noticeably better than the stock pads.

Pros: excellent performance, better than stock

I'm going to need front brakes soon. Last time I got brakes I ordered one of their Zimmerman/Akebono kits that covered all four corners, rotors and pads. I only need front pads and rotors, so I was going to order the same kit, just for the front, and then send in my old pads and rotors off the front.

Pros: great deal

Go with good solid OE quality coated rotors, and a low dust pad like Zimmerman and Akebono, Brembo, etc. You'll probably never push the limits of the stock brakes if youre not tracking the car.

Pros: good solid OE quality
Cons: slotted eat pads

Just wanted to give a heads up for anyone who is interested in swapping your stock front 2012+ Beetle Turbo Brakes with MK7 GTI PP / S3 / R / Clubsport brakes/rotors/pads. The upgrade went well and was worth it, even looks so much better with the larger caliper and rotor.

Pros: worth it, looks better
Cons: dust shield useless
Vehicle: Volkswagen Beetle

It is complete. I got the MKVII GOLF R calipers and rotors now on a 2012 Beetle Turbo. Calipers/carriers/pads/rotors for a MKVII PP Package fit fine. Much better bite and brake performance over stock. smooth nice braking. no sounds. pads now bedded in. using factory pads and zimmerman rotors

Pros: better bite, smooth braking
Vehicle: Volkswagen Beetle
