190e rotors

I bought some perforated rotors several years ago, 4 years 40kmiles. I do not think that they were zimmerman. I thought of these rotors to be for racing and the improved heat transfer would prevent warping. Paid $250 or so for the set of four. The stopping improvement was very much improved, although the rotors are much noisier than the regular stock ones. This seem to be a good upgrade for a baby Benz.

190e rotor

I looked at my notes on the Haynes manual and looks like I did buy zimmerman. They last twice as OEM, 40% more cooling and 20% faster braking. At $62.26 several years ago they appear to be better than ATE Power Discs $48.91 and Balo $33.18
