New Rotors

I'm looking to replace and in turn upgrade my stock rotors for my 2013 Cooper S. I drive most freeway with some fun side roads on runs here and there. Any suggestions for the best bang for the buck?

Stop techs. Good price. Invest in pad more then the rotors. Get Hawks or EBC pads

Zimmerman or "way" specials which I suspect are Zimmerman's anyway as it is unlikely he makes his own rotors . . .

bottom line is all you need are plain janes .... don't waste your $$ on slots or drilled. You don't need 'em.

I like EBC red pads for reduced dust ... used green for a while, reds are "better" IMO

Just get some Zimmerman plain face, unless you want something showy or you track the car frequently.

+1000 on the EBC Reds! Great pad, so much less dust.
