The natural enemy of braking performance is heat. When temperature levels reach critical levels, a thin layer of gasses actually prevent the brake pads from making complete contact with the rotor friction surface. The addition of cross-drilling the friction surface promotes the evacuation of these gasses and improves stopping performance and pedal feel. TMS cross drilled rotors and AXXIS brake pads result in improved braking performance and look great too!

All TMS cross drilled rotors are made to exacting standards by the worlds leading brake manufacturers. Each part is then analyzed for its specific application and design. Engineers then determine the optimal drilling pattern to maximize stopping power. These patterns are then cut into the rotor using today's most advanced CNC machines. This level of quality control ensures that each TMS High Performance rotor will perform to the highest levels every time under all driving conditions. All TMS cross-drilled rotors feature counter-sunkholes that reduce stress risers and fractures.

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.

BMW E46 M3 Semi-Floating Front Brake Rotors - Pair (325x28) are an excellent upgrade for any US spec E46 M3, providing superior braking performance and reliability. Designed as a direct replacement for the factory rotors, these vented 325x28 rotors feature directionally veined construction for optimal cooling efficiency.

Constructed with Zimmermann Formula-Z 2-piece technology, these rotors are lighter than stock alternatives, allowing for improved thermal expansion and contraction, which significantly reduces the risk of warping at high temperatures. The cross-drilled design enhances heat dissipation, resulting in better braking performance and reduced fade during demanding driving conditions.

ECS Tuning offers a wide range of premium brake components, including pads, rotors, shoes, drums, hardware, hoses, lines, fluids, and high-temperature lubricants, ensuring everything needed for a professional brake service is readily available.

  • Direct replacement for US spec E46 M3, ensuring easy installation
  • Directionally veined design for optimal cooling performance
  • Lighter than stock rotors, enhancing overall vehicle handling
  • Zimmermann Formula-Z construction prevents warping at high temperatures
  • Cross-drilled for faster heat dissipation and reduced brake fade
