I run Zimmermans rotors from Pelican on my 981 for couple years now. Have nothing bad to say about them!

I run just generic ATE pads, I don't truck the car, this is just street setup.

I went with AP-Racing j-hook rotors and oem pads. Awesome combo. I would do this again.

I can't recommend them enough.

Sebro is the OEM porsche supplier like textar! FCP euro just provide highest quality parts! I'm from Toronto and I buy all my parts from their website! and you have a lifetime warranty! When your rotors or pads are done, buy new one and send them back the old one and you will be fully reimbursed.. amazing company

I just did the Sebro slots and Ferodo DS2500’s from FCP as part of a kit. I do have a squeal from the left rear but I only have 50 miles on them. I did the bedding procedure that was recommended and other users of Ferodo have have the same experience but the squeal gets less and less and is gone after about 500 miles.
Initial bite is stronger than Textar but with so few miles I don’t really have a good opinion at this point.

Hi,
I am looking ahead and wanting to stock up on a set of rear and front brakes (pads and rotors) for when I need to replace.
I like the performance of the oem Porsche stuff and would like equal or better for street use, back country roads and the occasional track day or 2.
How does the aftermarket stuff compare to the oem stuff ?
Has anyone been running Zimmerman or Sebro rotors ?
Twr pads ?
I know and like how the Porsche oem pads perform overall, the dealer just wants too much for a full replacement here in Canada.
Dealer price for rears: $1400
Dealer price for front: $2200
Prices are for Pads, rotors, bolts, sensors, springs and paste.
My fear is buying the 3rd party stuff and being disappointed with the performance and having to buy oem in the end.
On the other hand I heard from a parts guy that there is no "low end market" for Porsche 911 stuff and so usually anything you buy is as good or better than oem. Can anyone validate this ?
