Brake discs Zimmermann or EBC

Rotors: Zimmermann blanks.

I just put on Zimmerman rotors and hawk 5.0 pads all around and it’s been great. Stops quick, doesn’t make much noise, and not too expensive

The Zimmerman/Akebono combo is what I have. They're great. I wouldn't have anything else.

I have EBC rotors and Redstuff pads right now and am quite happy, but I had R1 and Powerstop previously.

Did a set of EBC slotted rotors and RedStuff pads on our 7.5 GTI and it's changed how the car brakes entirely. It's got a real consistent bite without bleed off.

I use Zimmerman coated rotors are most everything in our shop and they work great.

Was also thinking of doing EBC dimpled and slotted rotors, just to not worry about potential drilling rotor issues.

Got quoted 3k CAD for pads/rotors, bought Zimmerman drilled and brembo ceramics for 1500 and did them myself. Took 4 hrs taking my time, very simple job if you have the means to do it yourself

I had this when I fitted ebc discs on my Cupra. It's went on for a few hundred miles but then went away. I think it's something to do with the grooves. My thinking was they maybe had a little lip or something that eventually smoothed off.

Just run em’ after you grind it off. For a daily I would never run drilled. Noisy, water intrusion points, eat up pads, spider crack at the drill holes from water hitting a hot rotor, and you’ll be lucky to find a shop to turn them once they warp which is going to happen.
