I always use Zimmerman coated rotors and Hawk HPS pads on my street Audis. Pads tend to last about 100,000 miles.
I have 65K on my Zimmermann rotors and Brembo pads. Fronts are 6mm, rear are 7mm. I’m expecting at least 30K more before I change anything.
EBC discs and pads have been fine on all my bikes and they're a British company - replace the pads at the same time as the new discs.
I got Zimmerman blanks and Hawk HPS pads because I've used them on my Camaro before and was quite pleased with them. They are a great street pad.Massive reduction in brake dust, braking performance feels similar if not better than stock UNTIL they get some heat in them. Once they get hot, there is a huge increase in stopping power. This is not like a racing pad where it's shit until it gets hot, it goes from good to fantastic.However, high temp fluid is an absolute MUST.
Zimmerman rotors and OEM pads. Less brake dust, and no squeaking
Zimmerman rotors are top notch.
I use Zimmerman rotors on my XC60 and her BMW. Excellent bang for buck in my opinion. Don’t like brembo pads for the dust, use Akebono on BMW, Alebono or Volvo pads on Volvo for dust control.
Zimmermann from FCP Euro hav been great on my N55 F10.
In winter climates rust is the biggest wear and tear item on brakes. I went with coated i3 rotors from zimmerman at around 8 years and 55K km
Zimmermann discs + Textar OEM pads
• After ~2 weeks → felt a clicking/grip when braking no squeak
• Recently brought it back again → they cleaned discs/pads applied lube and even replaced the pads
• Now 2 days later → clicking/grip is back + a new squeak at low speed in parking
