Good affordable Rotors for 2018 430i Convertible?

Heard bad things about Centric... How are raybestos or other brands and which model?

Looking to hopefully spend $60/each or less if possible. Don't want the BMW ones since they need to be replaced everytime...

I do brake a little hard sometimes, so I don't want warping and I want something quiet.

I have had great success with the high carbon Centric rotors. Don't know where you heard bad things about them but I use them almost exclusively on all my cars. They get beat on at the track and still hold up well. I like the corrosion coating and the fact they resist rusting due to the high carbon make up. I garage my car for the winter and the rotors surface still looks great. I used Rockauto for all these items.

IMO rotors should be resurfaced or replaced every time you replace pads. I mean that is if you care about your braking.

Zimmerman or oe is my go to and always coated rotors. Although I use the Centric plain ones on my race car; Heavy metallic pads really eat the rotors no no point going with fancy ones.

I also find terrible rotors produce a bunch more dust than better ones.
