Default FCP Euro Brake Kit Recommendation/Review

Anyone have any experience with any of the brake kit bundles available at FCP Euro?

I was looking at one of the two kits below and thought I would ask if anyone had any feedback before pulling the trigger.

Car is not tracked but rather used for weekend drives and some occasional spirited twisty runs.

I went with their Sebro/Ferodo kit for my C2S…nice products, showed up quickly, and an easy install. I haven’t run HPDE on them yet, the pads squeak a bit until warm. Best part, free replacement when they go bad!

Hope this helps!

997.1 Turbo owner here and I went with the Zimmerman kit from FCP. Everything came really quick and accurate as expected with FCP. I did edit to a low dust pad as I don't plan to track the car. Went with TRW pads.

Been really happy with the kit so far and the low dust really helps with cleaning

I ordered the Zimmerman kit for my ‘07 997.1. Did the install just over three months ago. Liked having all new brake hardware and the sensor cables included, plus FCP’s lifetime replacement. My driving style is similar to yours - no tracking just casual drives with an occasional sprint or two.
