Not sure. Just heard some people say they are oem quality. Also been looking at the stoptech grooved but recently read a couple of threads regarding some issues with them

I purchased and installed the zimmerman rotors last week on my E90, had no issues what so ever, to me they look like quality rotors.

in the past I've only ever used performance friction 2 part discs and carbon lorraine Rc6 pads, that makes standard callipers 100x better without swapping for the likes of 4/8 pots

Ive not yet looked but i imagine PF make discs for the BMW

if thats the case that would be awesome, but from what i can find the 335i/d front discs are 348mm x 30mm and the Z4M front discs are 345mm x 28mm not a lot in it so could possibly work! if someone could confirm this ill order a set ASAP
