I just did mine. I put on raybestos rotors and akebono pads. Stopping power is significantly better the the OE rotors and pads I took off. SIGNIFICANTLY.
Pros: significantly better stopping power
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).
Pros: Saves energy when braking
Cons: need to charge often
Vehicle:
BMW

I put on Raybestos Element3 rotors on with Power Stop Z23 carbon fiber pads. The bite on the Z23s is so much better than the stock pads.

Cons: Porsche uses them for looks
