Brake discs Zimmermann or OEM BMW

I use Zimmerman front and rear with no problems

Zimmerman makes solid rotors and Akebono pads are awesome, plus they last forever. I think the only thing you could improve on is a bit of extra stopping power if you went back to the oem pad material, which is likely not ceramic like the Akebonos. However, you'll lose those clean wheels and the pads will likely wear out much faster. I never felt that they lacked adequate stopping power anyway. Brake feel is much more linear compared to the super grabby stock pads, and I actually prefer it now that I'm used to it.

i bought used 2011 528i RWD N52 engine with 120k km 5 years ago.

currently sitting at 179k km.

brake discs/pads/fluid

I have used Zimmerman rotors on multiple cars and have been very happy with them. They take lots of abuse and corrosion in minimal

Zimmerman rotors and quality pads like Pagid. I personally like Zimmerman and Pagid combo, used those on my MK4 GTi

I run them on my Tiguan and they’re working out well for the past 3 years although they’re also not a left and right set.

I went with Zimmerman front and rear about 1.5 years ago. No problems.

I went with the FCP euro replacement kit, the zimmerman rotors have been fine (another 35k on them), the texar pads work fine, but dust more than OEM

have drilled and slotted rotors for it with pads not installed, only problems are it needs the new brakes installed the current ones are warped

Ordered zimmerman f brake discs and they were not riveted tight enough. The two-piece brake disc made a clicking noise when braking at low speed.
