Brake rotors

[patz]

It has been a long 12 years since I have replaced my rotors. I currently have ATE slotted. The slots are gone and near wear limit.

I hear that Zimmerman are now China made. I'm OK with ATE but I see Sebro coming on strong.

What are recent experiences with the usual maniacs?

Otto Zimmermann Bremsscheiben GmbH -

have a look at the above link which is Zimmermann's website.

We use Zimmermann Rotors from choice and have never had an issue.

I believe they are better than ATE and Pagid Brands and Sebro are better than they were a few years ago.

If you look on Alibaba in China you will, of course, find listings for Zimmermann Rotors but they will be cheap copies.

I buy from Zimmermann's official importer in the UK and am very confident in the rotors delivered.

Just make sure you get the factory coated ones, the ones without the protective coating tends to rust at the hub/lug stud area faster, does not affect performance, but I hate it when the rears rust up. My fronts are coated. Yes, I got them at different times.

I recently seen some drilled zinc coated rotors that have curved rows of holes that look sort of like like the brembo curved vane discs. I strongly suspect that the vanes are straight.

So, are there any curved vane replacement sinc washed slotted discs out there??

curious,

Just stick with stock, unless you are going to the track.
