You mention cost but not weight differential of the rotors, many people move to girodisks because it reduces the weight at each corner. With regards to blanks vs drilled, I have had no issues running drilled (Zimmerman) on my previous Audi TTs and my current 718. I run a dedicated set for track with Carbotech XP12s, no fade, no issues. 718 is in roughly the same weight category, 3k ish.

Pros: no fade, no issues
Vehicle: Porsche

I had my V60t6 2020 done for 800$ with Zimmerman rotors and Hawk pads (high performance). The job was done by 2 technicians within 1h.

Pros: fast service, high performance
Cons: expensive
Vehicle: Volvo V60

Solid, Zinc coated Zimmermann with Red Stuff pads. I'm stage 1 and push my car a bit occasionally and have never had any issues stopping when I want to.

Pros: reliable stopping power

I used Zimmerman rotors and ATE ceramic pads all purchased from fcpeuro.com. With stock pads I could wash the car and within two days they would be brown from brake dust. Now I can go weeks before I start to notice that there may be a little dust.

With the ceramic pads I cannot tell a difference in braking, I have almost no brake dust, and the rotors still look like new.

Pros: less brake dust, rotors look new

I used both before Zimmerman is good and cheap. Akebento are good too but hard to find and more expense. I practically used all brake pads and rotors over the 13 years I own the RRS. I would recommend using cermpads.

Pros: good and cheap
Cons: hard to find, expensive

I’m getting issues with rotors warping on my 2002 E53. I bought Zimmermann smooth rotors couple of years ago and they’ve been lathed couple of times now. At one point I had to replace Zimmermann pads too as they were excreting glue or something that caused “falling stars” on the rotor faces.

Cons: rotors warping, excreting glue
Vehicle: BMW X5
