E36 non M3 brakes up front is probably your easiest and cheapest way to go, dirt cheap and readily available everywhere, the 286mm rotors and calipers leave just enough room for 15inch wheels and they are provide plenty of power and heat disappation for a street E30.
FCP Euro Zimmer + Akebono kit replace if you want less dust and prefer more linear (ceramic) braking.
Zimmerman rotors are a good replacement for oem. Get your choice of pads. I like oem style so something like Textar or Pagid are good choices.
All Zimmerman rotors 2 w/ brake pads aswell
I did drilled Zimmerman with EBC red break pads up front and regular Zimmerman with the same pads in the rear.
Get the Zimmerman rotors (I got the drilled) and Akebono pads. They are awesome!!
Zimmermann Rotors / IS2000 Pads
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
My front brake discs keep getting warped after 500-1000km. Same issue with 3 sets of new, quality (Zimmermann) discs. The vibration that returns after said 500-1000km is always exactly the same.
Got a new brake set Zimmermann on my S5 and immediately got this look - the anti rust coating around the front rotor edges don’t want to come off. The rear ones are fine and have even wear. 1,5k miles later it’s still digging my eyes.
