If money is not an issue, get EBC slotted rotors and yellow stuff pads. Amazing combo and will be getting the same when I need brakes.
I have the same setup except with red stuff on my supercharged jag and have 70k miles on the rotors and pads and still look like the day I bought em. I drove that car like I stole it all the time and it has been through pretty rough winters here in central KY.
I changed my rear brakes around 40,000km due to excessive rust perforation on the rear brake rotors and I opted for EBC slotted and drilled rotors paired with Green Stuff Series 2000 pads. They were phenomenal until 103k when I sold the car. A bit dusty but worked fantastic.
I think it's absolutely worth it if you have quality rotors. Had a set of drilled EBC rotors a while back, and had them turned 3 times before they were below spec. Think it was under $20 per rotor. Those things never warped.
Saves energy when braking. Its really satisfying to see the range go up when slowly braking downhill. This also saves your brake discs from wearing out fast, (just remember to use the brakes some times so they dont rust).
My previous Maxima warped rotors like crazy until I put some of the EBC usr slotted on it. They are excellent rotors.
EBC rotors (made in England) and Akebono pads (US). My mechanic thought that the rotors were OEM. Nice and thick and able to be cut once. Akebono pads are frequently OEM, quiet, long-lasting and dust free. Only coins this combo costs more than most.
The stock front rotors have fairly significant heat spots and slight warping. I do mostly spirited street driving with some track use but obviously heat dissipation has been an issue, given how hefty the car is. Looking to upgrade the rotors and pads to more performance oriented options while hoping to keep the level of noise and dust relatively low.
Some people will get an error when trying to get their xenons to go into adaptation mode. I played with my setup and got a MIL. My rear level sensor is a good bit off, so it throws my xenons off no matter what. Ill need to tap a new hole and play with positioning in order to get the measurement back to where the car will auto adjust again. Ill let u guys know what I come up with, along with a really easy to follow write up.
BMW OEM rotors after 4 years and 35k miles. Junk build quality now
Yeah, I gained a stunning 1 WHP with a D03 nozzle with my DVC-30 kit. :laugh:
