You mention cost but not weight differential of the rotors, many people move to girodisks because it reduces the weight at each corner. With regards to blanks vs drilled, I have had no issues running drilled (Zimmerman) on my previous Audi TTs and my current 718. I run a dedicated set for track with Carbotech XP12s, no fade, no issues. 718 is in roughly the same weight category, 3k ish.
I got ate powerdiscs and they are pretty good! I got them as a set with ate pads. I wish they had a bit more bite but maybe that’s due to being 296mm, maybe bigger brakes are needed next time
I had my V60t6 2020 done for 800$ with Zimmerman rotors and Hawk pads (high performance). The job was done by 2 technicians within 1h.
Solid, Zinc coated Zimmermann with Red Stuff pads. I'm stage 1 and push my car a bit occasionally and have never had any issues stopping when I want to.
I replaced my previous rotors with Zimmerman ones and they also had this notch so don’t worry about it as it’s normal.
I used Zimmerman rotors and ATE ceramic pads all purchased from fcpeuro.com. With stock pads I could wash the car and within two days they would be brown from brake dust. Now I can go weeks before I start to notice that there may be a little dust.
With the ceramic pads I cannot tell a difference in braking, I have almost no brake dust, and the rotors still look like new.
I used both before Zimmerman is good and cheap. Akebento are good too but hard to find and more expense. I practically used all brake pads and rotors over the 13 years I own the RRS. I would recommend using cermpads.
Zimmerman rotors and Hawk HPS pads. Rotors are not drilled or slotted. The car stops on a dime and just saved me on the highway yesterday. This was the first modification I did and I'm glad I did it.
Zimmerman is a good brand in my opinion. Brembo quality has gone downhill fast with lots of manufacture in China. I bought a set of Raybestos (Made in USA; new old stock I think) and they warped after about 6 months with EBC Reds (I do not recommend EBC). The ATE rotors are OK for street but racing has cause some of them to break apart at the welds on the hats.
Tbh drilled Zimmermann Discs are imho Junk. They use OEM Discs. Had so many Problems with Vibrations, warped Discs and so on.
