Zimmerman cross-drilled front rotors are manufactured in Germany to exceptional standards of quality. BMW performance cars are famed for the quality of their brakes, but many owners want to go even further with their cars. Zimmerman rotors are made for exceptional stopping power on BMW MINIs.
Serious drivers and car enthusiasts know that braking is just as important as accelerating in getting around the track or down a windy road. Cross-drilled rotors allow heat to escape more quickly than conventional rotors, resisting fading and uneven wear. These rotors will help your MINI stay effective on the street or on the track much longer than the stock brakes.
Other cross-drilled brake rotors are often not heat-treated after drilling, leaving sharp edges that decrease brake pad life. Zimmerman cross-drilled rotors feature holes with edges that increase pad life and prevent cracking of the rotors. The holes also provide a visual wear inspection for the life of the rotor.
Priced per pair.

If your brake wear warning light is illumninated, see replacement sensors.
MINI recommends the brake fluid be replaced every 2 years, more often if you track your car. See ATE Super Blue for replacement brake fluid. ATE Super Blue is a high quality performance fluid that will last much longer than the standard DOT4 fluid. This is an ABS friendly fluid.
