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
Vehicle: BMW

If you have no interest to do anything other than normal driving r1 concepts will work. If you so much as do a little "spirited driving" they will bake and turn into crappy brownies. And refuse any type of refund even with 500 miles on them. I honestly preferred OEM. They lasted a nice long time, minimal noise, and they were actually really nice on track

Pros: OEM lasted long, minimal noise
Cons: bake, crappy, no refund
Mileage: 500 km

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
