Brake discs ATE or GiroDisc
Yup. Love them on my 987.1.
I have girodisc’s on my 981 cayman, they are fantastic rotors, I started off with DS2500 pads but I used up >50% of all the pads in one track weekend at road Atlanta, I’ve got another event this weekend but I’m running DS1.11 this time around.
Absolutely love my girodiscs. I’m on DS2500s which its time for an upgrade to a more aggressive pad, but they’ve held up through quite some heat lol.
Went from OEM to Girodisc 350mm. All street, no track. By far the best upgrade I have done to my 991.2 C4.
hatte auf meinem Golf 4 (Variant, 1.9 pd mit 74kw) nur ATE Powerdisk, um den Verschleiß zu sehen, mit vorrausschauender Fahrweise haben die Scheiben immer über 140tkm gehalten, Beläge um die 70tkm. weiterer Vorteil ist die weiße Beschichtung (nicht abputzen!) am Anfang vorsichtig Bremsen, er kann auf den ersten Fahrten auch qualmen. die verhindert aber auch Rost innen der Bremsscheiben für einen großteil der Zeit.
Go with the Giro's and leave them on permanently. Better cooling and braking and cheaper to replace just the discs (2 piece rotor) on future replacement.
I went with ATE "Powerdisc" discs and ceramic pads on my e39 530d, they're beautiful brakes.
I mostly use ATE. For some more racing i often use Tarox F2000 rotors and Ferodo DS2500 pads.
I have had a positive experience with ATE rotors from a German brand. I had a bad experience with Bosch brake pads in Europe a few times; they squeaked and made noises at low speeds
Update for all those following along. My brakes were the best they've ever been today - on a very, very hot day (feels-like temp over 100). I had a vibration with light brake pressure, but pressed on giving more pressure and found that as the brakes got more heat in them, and I went deeper into the braking zone, the vibration disappeared. All was well, but after checking the rotors, they appear to have developed cracks.
