Zimmerman or OEM equivalent ( worldpac) rotors, and I like Hawk Ceramic pads or ATE OEM stuff.
I use Centric rotors/drums and Akebono shoes/pads from RockAuto. They work fine, despite FUD on OEM for shoes.
Zimmerman blanks have always been good to me. I use Akebeno pads for low dust but most pads should be quiet with the blank rotors
I'd also recommend centric for the rotors.
I changed my front rotors to Zimmermann, and brake pads to trw ultra. It made a big difference.
My solution is to always use top of the line brake pads like PFC 11s or raybestos st43 and up.
The other thing I ended up doing is once I really started being able to push the car hard, I installed Porsche 911 993 air deflectors on the lower control arms and that increased airflow was just enough to let me get away with keeping the small brakes. This past weekend I was at VIR and I was getting up to 130 on the straights, even bumping up against the rev limiter in fifth before braking for roller coaster, and the brakes held up fine. That and $30 RockAuto centric rotors.
Zimmerman coated rotors + OEM pads
Notably less rust on rotor edges and maintains the great initial bite of the OEM.
I went with Zimmerman rotors and akebono ceramic pads. I think I’ll do metallic pads next time. The low brake dust is nice though
Zimmerman are a good brand, but beware, the brake dust is seriously next level with them.
I put cheap rotors in the front. They suck and made braking unpredictable and dangerous, especially from 150kmh plus. I bought Zimmermanns a week later and the problem completely vanished.
