I went with Brembo rotors and Powerstop pads. So far so good.
You need at least a high carbon vented disc like Brembo if using ceramic pads
Of course Brembo is reliable.
I got a set of G63 Brembo rotors at Autozone for 10% of dealer list.
GTI rebuilt front caliper conversion with drilled Brembo rotors and pad
My E39 rotors have lasted forever. They’re Brembo from rock auto with Aki Bono pads. Run the same set up on both of our E46’s as well
No complaints about the Brembo's on my car, on the second set now. Previously used Mintex.
I have an 18 340 ix with the msport track package. swapped mine out with Brembo blank rotors and Akebono euroceramic pads at 40k ( wasn’t necessary) but the OEM plus upgrade is worth it. The calipers on the Msport are a fantastic brembo but they use cheaper Zimmerman rotors.
I’ve been using Brembo for my E39. Just be careful that there are lower tier for Brembo, it is still original Brembo but without anti-corrosion coating. It got corroded after a month or so. The one that got coated is slightly more expensive but I’d go for that next time.
Recently needed front discs on my Astra VXR and just the parts were £2500. Apparently Brembo only made that part for that car so they’re rare. Managed to find them privately with front and rear pads for £820 plus a couple hundred to my local garage to fit them and some other bits.
