BMW Brake Rotors & Discs for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Similarly to brake pads, the brake rotors can be matched to specific driving conditions and intended use. For solely street use the design and characteristics particular to each rotor are not big factors in overall braking performance. For instance, a cross-drilled rotor will not significantly improve braking under street conditions. Improved stopping performance will come mostly from your brake pads. Some rotor designs perform better under racing conditions with racing pads but, generally, all rotor types can be used on the street. For race track use we typically recommend a slotted or blank stock rotor. Any 2-piece floating rotor is superior to anything else and those are our first recommendation when available. For more information on the brake rotors we sell, check out our rotor buying guide.

All of these rotors are manufactured to meet BMW's specs for each vehicle application. Our standard rotors are sourced from original manufacturers for BMW (OEM), performance alternatives, or straight from BMW themselves. In some cases BMW Motorsport and BMW Performance will have their own rotor upgrades. Our Cross-Drilled, Slotted, and Drilled+Slotted rotors are manufacturered by StopTech - a global leader in braking technology and the braking technical partner to the Turner Motorsport racing team.

Zimmerman rotors are finished with an anti-corrosion zinc dichromate coating over the entire rotor. This coating is applied over the rotor hat, face, and through the vanes for total corrosion protection. Even after a year of use the Zimmerman coating doesn't change color or effectiveness. The rotors are ready to use after correct bed-in procedures have been done. In addition, Zimmerman uses a high carbon content in their discs for improved thermal performance.

OEM supplier Zimmerman has filled the gap left by BMW when they decided to stop importing the Euro E46 M3 brake rotors to the US. The Euro rotors are cross-drilled and floating, providing much improved cooling over the stock US brakes and are a direct replacement for the stock US rotors. These Zimmerman floating rotors are made in Germany and are almost identical to the Genuine BMW floating rotors that are no longer available to the US. They share similar drill patterns, floating design, offset, and vaning as the OE BMW parts. Zimmerman has been an OE supplier to a large number of German cars, including Porsche and Mercedes.
These Zimmerman rotors are sold as a pair.

This is a set of left and right REAR stock brake rotors from Meyle.

What sets these rotors apart from OE BMW or OEM parts is the corrosion-resistant coating that is applied to the rotor-hat and inner vanes. This super-durable coating prevents rust, ruining the appearance of your car. Aftermarket brake discs do not usually have any coating on them, exposing them to rust and corrosion as soon as they are put on the car. These premium rotors, manufactured by Meyle, are the equal or better than any OEM or even OE BMW part but at a much more attractive price!
