I just did mine brakes & rotors on my 2019 1.5 and all parts from R1 Concepts, drilled & slotted. Feel so smooth!
Pros: smooth feel
Owner reviews for brake discs
Manufacturers
Comparisons
TRW, ATE, or Zimmermann rotors. All 3 are absolute top quality.
Pros: top quality rotors
Zimmerman blanks have always been good to me. I use Akebeno pads for low dust but most pads should be quiet with the blank rotors
Pros: good quality, quiet
I run Brembo 355×32mm TY3 rotors and they have exactly zero issues with very high braking loads.
Pros: zero issues, high loads
Vehicle:
Nissan
Buy Honda ones from the Honda dealership
Pros: recommended
I'd also recommend centric for the rotors.
Pros: recommended
I’ve used R1 rotors for over 15 years on everything from a Dodge minivan to all three of my BMW’s. I have not ever had one issue and will continue to buy them for years to come.
Pros: no issues, long lasting
When it comes to rotors and pads, Bosch Quiet Cast are much better than anything else I've tried in 25 years of XJ ownership.
I think it comes down to the composition of rotor itself, the resilience of the coating and probably manufacturing process, they seem to last and perform a lot better than even the other premium coated rotors I've tried over the years. Similar to OEM German car rotors, they still look like new even after multiple Canadian winters.
Pros: much better, long lasting
My stock rotors (metallic pads) lasted 9 years and a track day. My ebay drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads)lasted 9 years and a handful of track days; they didn't crack the chamfer was just looking iffy. My latest set is from Amazon, powerstop branded drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads); have survived 1 track day, 1 light hdpe day and are on year 3. If you get drilled (any brand), you need to inspect the rotors more often.
Cons: iffy chamfer, needs frequent inspection
Vehicle:
BMW
I bought Ridex discs recently and regret it. They quickly rusted out (not on the braking section, of course, that would be crazy) but on the front part that covers the wheel hub. It looks so ugly. It rusted out in less than 2 months and I park my car inside !
Cons: rusted quickly, ugly
