Brake discs Zimmermann or Raybestos
I'm running Raybestos R300 slotted rotors and Powerstop Z23 pads on my 4/2 Brembos, from Rockauto. No complaints or squeals. Holds up really well with repeated heavy braking in the twistys too.
I have personally used Raybestos Element 3 from rock auto and they are amazing and rust resistant
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.
I replaced both front rotors and all side pins and dust boots with Raybestos stuff a few weeks ago. Easy job, cost $150ish instead of $800 or whatever dealer charged nonsense
It's a commuter and it stops fine
I went with the Raybestos Element 3. Rotors are coated for rust protection, pads are ceramic. Comes out to just under $100 including shipping.
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.
Raybestos R-300 for rotors and Akebono ProACT for pads. Almost no dust, no brake fade and the right price. Everyone recommends the PowerStop stuff, but they wear fast and are noisy.
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
