Meiner Erfahrung nach bremst das genauso gut wie andere Bremsen, das Problem ist nach 10tkm sportlicher Fahrweise sind Bel\u00e4ge und Scheiben leer, normale Fahrweise max 20tkm. Felgen Kohlschwarz weil nat\u00fcrlich mega viel Bremsstaub in kurzer Zeit.
Pros: bremst genauso gut
Cons: Bel\u00e4ge und Scheiben leer
Mileage: 10000 km
ATE rotors. Check the callipers, they don' t work properly.
Cons: calipers don't work properly
Ate 200 caused my master cylinder in my M2 Competition to squeak. Wound up having to re flush with OE low viscosity fluid then again with SRF. It's a known problem in a few cars.
Cons: caused master cylinder squeak
