Brake pads Textar or Zimmermann

I did change my F30 with Textar and it was plug n play. No need to go big if you don’t go on track days often imo.

I beat the hell out of some OE Textars in 110+ heat at Buttonwillow and they held up admirably. You don’t need anything more for the street.

I always had good results with textar and Zimmerman.

I use all Textar disks and pads and they are excellent.

Zimmerman blank rotors are a good street replacement. No need to pay for drilled/slotted rotors. Personally I went with ceramic brake pads. They don’t bite quite as hard as metallic, but they still bite well, don’t make as much brake dust, and they don’t seize to my rotors after they get wet

front brake pads (textar) for gti with performance pack, bolts, anti-squeal, grease; normally $70+

I love all things zimmermann brakes. Not the cheapest but some of the highest quality in my opinion.

Brake rotors are ATE and pads are Textar.

Textar is hot garbage these days unfortunately

I switched to the supposedly equivalent Zimmerman blanks and textar pads and I didn’t like the performance so I switched back to the stock brakes.
