Zimmerman/Akebono?
Just had an oil change at the dealer and was informed that my right rear brake pads were down to 4 mm, but the left remained at 8mm. Odd! I should think they would wear more evenly? Anyhow. They wanted $592.00 for the one set of pads - installed. Naturally, I declined. They did not recommend replacing the rotor.
The car has 65,000 miles. I was thinking that I might as well replace rotors and pads. The original BMW parts are like $530.00 (!) whereas the Zimmerman/Akebono kit comes in at about $300.00.
Do y'all have any experience with the Zimmerman/Akebono? Also, is it wise to replace the rotors, or should I just do the pads?
I appreciate your feedback!
