Brake discs OEM BMW or GALFER
My local shop recommended trying Galfer rotors which is what they run with Maguras and it’s made a difference on my front brake which is the only one I have had rub issues with. Galfer rotor with new pads took about a week to break in with no rub.
Pros: no rub after break in
Cons: rubbing issues
I’m running Galfer Wave rotors 203/180 with the E-bike pads front, pro pads rear. It’s so much more brake than I will ever need.
Pros: more brake than needed
I have Code RSC's on my current bike and got rid of the SRAM rotors and now run Galfer wave rotors along with MTX gold pads.
Pros: good with MTX gold pads
I did the Galfer Waves as I have centerlocks and didn't want to mess with an adapter. They have been really good so far. I paired with MTX gold pads and braking performance is really good.
Pros: really good, good braking
I've installed drilled and slotted rotors on my pickup, BMW X5, and just ordered a set for my BMW Z3. I live in the mountains, drive spirited, and definitely have improved braking performance with them. Make sure you bed the pads in correctly.
Pros: improved braking

BMW X5

Ever notice how BMW does not use cross drilled rotors. I think Porshe is also open about the fact they only use them for the looks. HMMMM
Pros: BMW doesn't use drilled rotors
Cons: Porsche uses them for looks
the 325 rotors are tiny and have pitiful heat capacity
Cons: tiny, pitiful heat capacity
