I have girodisc’s on my 981 cayman, they are fantastic rotors, I started off with DS2500 pads but I used up >50% of all the pads in one track weekend at road Atlanta, I’ve got another event this weekend but I’m running DS1.11 this time around.
Pros: fantastic rotors
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayman
Absolutely love my girodiscs. I’m on DS2500s which its time for an upgrade to a more aggressive pad, but they’ve held up through quite some heat lol.
Pros: held up through heat
Vehicle:
Porsche
Went from OEM to Girodisc 350mm. All street, no track. By far the best upgrade I have done to my 991.2 C4.
Pros: best upgrade, improved performance

Ich bin mittlerweile von Brembo, Ate usw zu Textar gewechselt (Scheiben und Beläge) da mir der Rostschutz sehr wichtig war.....und auch jetzt, nach ca. 70000km, sehen die Scheiben aus wie aus dem Karton....mit Ausnahme der blanken Bremsfläche.
Pros: guter Rostschutz, lange Lebensdauer
Mileage: 70000 km
Go with the Giro's and leave them on permanently. Better cooling and braking and cheaper to replace just the discs (2 piece rotor) on future replacement.
Pros: better cooling, better braking
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I use them. Hard to say if they’re better than stock but they’re cheaper
Pros: cheaper than stock
Cons: performance similar to stock
Hatte schon Brembo, Ate, Textar, Ferodo, TRW und Pagid verbaut. Vom reinen Bremswirkung fand ich Textar immer am Besten, da war aber auch nach spätestens 50.000 km Schluss mit den Scheiben. Ate war gefühlt ein My schlechter in der Bremswirkung, dafür aber sehr sehr haltbar - die goldene Mitte eben. Mit Brembo habe ich nur schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht, die Scheiben hatten nach 2.000 km Schlag, die Beläge wurden ziemlich schnell hart und quietschten wie Sau und besonders lang hielten sie auch nicht - dafür waren sie genau so teuer wie Ate. Habe aktuell Ferodo drauf, die waren günstig und bisher nach ca. 25.000 km absolut unauffällig.
Pros: gute Bremswirkung, haltbar
Cons: schnelle Abnutzung, quietschen
Vehicle:
Opel Vectra B
Mileage: 50000 km
