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
I went with Powerstop drilled/slotted rotors with brake pads. I like them, work great, less dust.
No complaints about the Brembo's on my car, on the second set now. Previously used Mintex.
I used to have both front rotors smoking after uphill runs lmao. I ended up getting some Powerstop slotted/drilled rotors and pads and then I overheated my brake fluid my first downhill run with them. Since I changed that its been braking fine and better than than stock imo
Powerstop are what I’ve been running on a few cars with no issues.
I went with powerstop geomet coated for rust prevention as I drive in a high humidity area and sometimes on the beach with saltwater.
Akebono ceramic pads and zimmermann or powerstop rotors. Those rotors are my top choices.
Replaced all 4 conners with Power stop Rotors and pads on my ‘15 Fusion 2.5L. Brakes vibrate at high temps (75mph to 50mph) 30k miles later. I’ve put PowerStops in my old Corolla and Sebring and I’ve never had an issue only with the Fusion. I properly heat cycled the rotors too.
Looks sharp, but remember slotted and drilled rotors are really pretty worthless in most cases until you get to really aggressive track only brake pads at extremely fast advanced level pace (or race pace).
