Zimmerman or OEM equivalent ( worldpac) rotors, and I like Hawk Ceramic pads or ATE OEM stuff.
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 changed my front rotors to Zimmermann, and brake pads to trw ultra. It made a big difference.
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
I just received my Zimmerman /Textar rotor pad combo today and installing on Thursday. I drive my car pretty hard but don’t track it anymore. Zimmerman should 1-1 stock as far as I understand
I went with the stock front 335i Grey 4 piston Brembo's (340mm rotors) and 2 piston Brembo's (345mm rotors) in the rear. I also went with stainless steel brake lines. I used the Zimmerman 2 piece rotors, I can't remember the pads, but I remember they weren't cheap. It stops really well for a daily driver.
My car is a daily driver so I used zimmerman blank 1 piece rotors and jurid pads.
Be aware, the dimples and slots make for more noise so don’t expect them to be identical to the blank rotors in that regard.
Also don't opt for Zimmermann. Go ATE, TRW or Textar. Trust me. Been there regretted every penny I spend on those death traps.
