Brake discs Zimmermann or OEM Volkswagen

Zimmermann Brake discs

I went with the stock front 335i Grey 4 piston Brembo's (340mm rotors) and 2 piston Brembo's (345mm rotors) in the rear. I also went with stainless steel brake lines. I used the Zimmerman 2 piece rotors, I can't remember the pads, but I remember they weren't cheap. It stops really well for a daily driver.

Pros: stops really well
Vehicle: BMW

I have been driving multiple BMWs for almost 20 years and have always used Zimmermans as replacement rotors. I will keep buying them.

Pros: reliable, good quality

The online vendors offer Zimmerman/Akebono kits, I installed one on the front of my E92 and brake dust is nearly eliminated. The Akebono Ceramic pads might have slightly less bite but I'm happy with them.

Pros: reduced brake dust
Cons: slightly less bite

I purchased a 2021 Jetta with approx. 14,xxx miles on it. After a 4 hour drive, I noticed what sounded like an extremely rusty brake rotor sound (metal/metal grinding) as well as the sound of an unbalanced wheel or un-evenly worn tire. A local VW dealership reported that both rear tires were showing major cupping and that the brake rotors were so rusted that they were pitting and would not pass VA state safety inspection.

Pros: none
Cons: rusty brake rotors, cupped tires
Mileage: 14000 km
