Brake discs Zimmermann or POWER STOP

POWER STOP Brake discs

I bought the Power stop drilled and slotted rear rotors and ceramic brakes for my 2010 Titan. I think it's great. I bought the kit, 2 rotors and 2 sets of pads for around $170 off carparts.com.

Pros: great, good kit
Vehicle: Nissan

I did replace the rotors with Powerstop Evolution drilled, slotted & Ceramic Pads, (as others have mentioned) but was going to anyway. I think something like this rivet touching the rotor for a few stops damages them. Maybe because they are new, maybe because they are actually better, perhaps it is a Placebo, but after bedding the pads properly, I believe the vehicle stops much easier/faster and with more confidence.

Pros: stops much easier/faster
Vehicle: Volkswagen

My old car was a Honda Pilot, we drove from PA to GA several times a year. I soon discovered that Honda OEM rotors were crap and they would warp after one of our trips. Finally gave in, bought some Power stop rotors and ceramic pads. Have never had a warp issue ever since.

Pros: no warp issues
Cons: OEM rotors warped
Vehicle: Honda Pilot

Zimmermann Brake discs

I was recommended Zimmerman Rotors for my 550i by a bmw shop and I've really liked them so far. I've had them on for the past 4 yrs and never had an issue. I bought some autozone rotors once before that warped and rusted super quick.

Pros: long lasting, no issues
Cons: autozone rotors warped
Vehicle: BMW

I just got a full set of power stop. They worked out great, only I wish that I would have gotten the coated rotors. The surface rust forming on the uncoated rotors looks bad, but doesn’t affect performance.

Pros: great performance
Cons: surface rust

I installed some new brakes and after looking at all the options I went with FCP’s bundle of Zimmerman drilled rotors and EBC red pads. I’m normally not a fan of drilled as my first set of drilled rotors back in 1996 warped and since then I’ve gone with just slotted. Since the mass is so great on the 345mm rotors I felt there would be enough mass to stay true/straight. FCP’s lifetime warranty helped seal the deal on these brakes.

Pros: lifetime warranty
Cons: drilled rotors

I would advise from purchasing Power Stop drilled and slotted rotors and pads. Purchased and installed them. They told me the upgraded rotors and pads would reduce the brake fade I experience from driving a 1999 4Runner with a 3 inch Lift and 32s in the mountains. Initially I saw an increase in stopping power and endurance. Now, 6 months later, I have been experiencing horrible vibrations while braking and at highway speeds. I replaced my pads which were already worn out. Still experienced horrible vibrations. Today I replaced the rotors and have finally been able to brake smoothly and safely. The Power Stop pads wore out in 6 months and the rotors got warped.

Pros: increased stopping power initially
Cons: horrible vibrations, warped rotors, pads wore quickly
