Brake discs Zimmermann or TRW

I went with Zimmerman rotors and akebono ceramic pads. I think I’ll do metallic pads next time. The low brake dust is nice though

I just received my Zimmerman /Textar rotor pad combo today and installing on Thursday. I drive my car pretty hard but don’t track it anymore. Zimmerman should 1-1 stock as far as I understand

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.

My car is a daily driver so I used zimmerman blank 1 piece rotors and jurid pads.

I used Zimmerman rotors

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

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.

OE is likely ATE or Pagid. Zimmermann is totally 100% fine OEM alternative.

Be aware, the dimples and slots make for more noise so don’t expect them to be identical to the blank rotors in that regard.

I keep hearing my brakes squeal when I drive and it's really bothering, so I'm trying to figure out what could be causing it or if it's something I have to deal with. I bought a Zimmermann kit with Textar semi metallic pads. My buddy thinks I should've removed the Coat Z anticorrosive off the rotors before installing but it says on their website it's made to be installed with it on. The only thing I can think of is maybe I didn't lube the moving surfaces enough or I need to do a better job bedding them in.
