PM member acuteperformance ( michael ). He's a reputable vendor here and sells R1 Concepts rotors and Hawk HPS pads. I have them on mine and I like them.

Not happy with my R1's or the replacements. I would never buy anything other then OEM ever again when it comes to brakes. Between the rust and the squealing I'm going crazy FTL!

Good to know.. I'm glad I got a a buddy who owns a shop who orders my OEM parts at his cost. Compared it to autohausaz and saved over a $100 just on the4 rotors.

I've been experiencing this as well. Brakes squeal after cold start up. Looked closely at them yesterday and see a lot of rust. Thought the powdercoat would've alleviated this but it didn't. Might have to contact Michael soon.

i may need to replace the front rotors soon as well. noticed over the last few times driving that i had a low buzzing vibration sound when applying brake to stop. does not occur at higher speeds [yet]. anyone else had this happen? on the subject of OEM rotors, would one purchase from a vendor here, indy retailer, or dealer? thanks...
okay, so i found this from first post...for my '08 535xi. BMW OEM >>> 117.75 & Zimmerman Coat Z >>> 72.16 and the link, http://www.autohausaz.com/search/pro...8&cid=14@Brake %26 Wheel Hub&gid=1896@Brake Disc/Brake Rotor
