Brake discs POWER STOP or GiroDisc
I run those rotors with their track day pads on track and have loved their performance.
I got the Power Stop JBR522SCR rotors for 23.99 each from RockAuto about four months ago. They stop my 2012.
So I got the black drilled and slotted rotors and pad replacements from them a while back, brakes are great. No dust, no squeak, fit like oem, and although not truly black anymore their still darker finish looking rotors so they look good behind the wheels.
S2000 1 piece oem rotors last 2 weekends
Girodisc s2000 oem size 2 piece rotors lasted me almost 2 years of heavy tracking. They only died because my hawk er1 pads took a chunk out of one. They still had plenty of thickness
Girodisc rotors are awesome and well proven across many vehicle brands.
I'd buy a set of Girodisc rotors. They will last 10 times longer than crap audi rotors.
Definitely approaching end of life. I wouldn’t have a safety concern just yet but you’re getting close. Go with Girodisc for your next set. They’re more expensive but they are amazing.
In July 2018, at ~124,000 miles, I put new PowerStop Geomet coated front rotors and new front PowerStop ceramic pads and rotors on a 2011 Honda Odyessy, for an owner who was about to move to into the rust belt (they were worried about rust so wanted coated rotors). OE rotors were warped and had very bad vibration at all speeds when braking. As it happens, the owner moved back to my area in 2023 and the car came back for routine service at ~178,000 miles. Pads about ~40% through, coated rotors showing no signs of rust, and despite the same person (his wife) driving the car with the same behaviors that apparently warped the OE rotors in the ~50k miles from when they first bought the car, 50k miles later and no signs of uneven rotor wear or warping. The PowerStop Evolution ceramic products have been great from my experience. The important thing with new pads and rotors is to follow the bed in procedure once they are installed.
Use the Powerstop kit. I have them on 3 personal cars (all around) right now and hundreds of customer cars. Not one comeback or complaint. Metallurgy on rotors is good as long as you do a nice break in period and burnish pads to rotors.
Back in November 2019 / ~7,500 miles ago, I installed the Power Stop Z23 Evolution Geomet Coated Rotor and Pad Kit. Well, now the rotors are warped and I need replacement rotors.
