190E brakes
 
Hi all I am wondering if buying the zimmerman crossdrilled rotors are worth the money as an upgrade, will they last longer? stop it better?, has anyone ordered these before? thanks for the imput

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.

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
