I got the Power Stop JBR522SCR rotors for 23.99 each from RockAuto about four months ago. They stop my 2012.
So I got the black drilled and slotted rotors and pad replacements from them a while back, brakes are great. No dust, no squeak, fit like oem, and although not truly black anymore their still darker finish looking rotors so they look good behind the wheels.
I went with Zimmerman rotors and oem pads on my M340i. Perfectly happy with the cost savings over the oem rotors.
You mention cost but not weight differential of the rotors, many people move to girodisks because it reduces the weight at each corner. With regards to blanks vs drilled, I have had no issues running drilled (Zimmerman) on my previous Audi TTs and my current 718. I run a dedicated set for track with Carbotech XP12s, no fade, no issues. 718 is in roughly the same weight category, 3k ish.
I had my V60t6 2020 done for 800$ with Zimmerman rotors and Hawk pads (high performance). The job was done by 2 technicians within 1h.
Solid, Zinc coated Zimmermann with Red Stuff pads. I'm stage 1 and push my car a bit occasionally and have never had any issues stopping when I want to.
I replaced my previous rotors with Zimmerman ones and they also had this notch so don’t worry about it as it’s normal.
I used Zimmerman rotors and ATE ceramic pads all purchased from fcpeuro.com. With stock pads I could wash the car and within two days they would be brown from brake dust. Now I can go weeks before I start to notice that there may be a little dust.
With the ceramic pads I cannot tell a difference in braking, I have almost no brake dust, and the rotors still look like new.
Zimmermann rotors are made in Germany, while Brembo rotors are made in Italy....... how would they pull that off?
Tbh drilled Zimmermann Discs are imho Junk. They use OEM Discs. Had so many Problems with Vibrations, warped Discs and so on.
