My car is a daily driver so I used zimmerman blank 1 piece rotors and jurid pads.
I used Zimmerman rotors
On my Honda CRV I've found the best value for money for driving on Michigan salted roads are the Deteoit Axle OEM coated rotor & pad re0lacement kit, comes with inserts, grease, top up brake fluid, brake cleaner, eventually the electroplated coating on the braking surface wears off from braking & you get rust spots if they sit outside covered in the salt slush, but the hub mating surfaces & venting fins been covered in 2 Michigan winters of snow & salt & still not a spot of rust on the rotor.
I have been driving multiple BMWs for almost 20 years and have always used Zimmermans as replacement rotors. I will keep buying them.
The online vendors offer Zimmerman/Akebono kits, I installed one on the front of my E92 and brake dust is nearly eliminated. The Akebono Ceramic pads might have slightly less bite but I'm happy with them.
OE is likely ATE or Pagid. Zimmermann is totally 100% fine OEM alternative.
Zimmermann's Coat Z rotors are excellent. I've used them on many BMWs with no issues.
I personally have the Zimmerman Rotors, and Akebono pads. Great, cheap setup.
I bought mine from Amazon. They are Detroit Axle or something like that. They had decent reviews.
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.
