Zimmermann has been my go-to, but any of the fully coated options would work fine. I would avoid the uncoated ones as they rust to shit fairly quickly.
Keep the solid brembo rotors. They are bullet proof compared to others.
I’ve always preferred Brembo rotors with Hawk, EBC, or Akebono brake pads.
Akebono for comfort, Hawk for longevity, EBC for performance.
Hawk pads are really good for performance as well but they require more heat to work better, while EBC just work great without warmup, but EBC pads do not last long.
He's worked hard with brembo this year to get a set up he likes and they said they made a breakthrough and that's clear in the performance.
I've used Zimmerman rotors on a track day, they held up through a couple of sessions without warping. Seems decent enough for me.
I've run Zimmerman Z coat rotors on my GTI the whole time I've owned it and they're great.
Zimmerman is a reputable German part manufacturer, I run their rotors on my cars and never had an issue. They're also not that expensive all things considered.
In winter climates rust is the biggest wear and tear item on brakes. I went with coated i3 rotors from zimmerman at around 8 years and 55K km
Got a new brake set Zimmermann on my S5 and immediately got this look - the anti rust coating around the front rotor edges don’t want to come off. The rear ones are fine and have even wear. 1,5k miles later it’s still digging my eyes.
eu am avut probleme cu brembo pe un vectra c si-au facut fata si nu mai franau, efectiv erau discurile oglinda
