Found - E36 Floating Rotors 286x22

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I have found a floating rotor for the E36 stock size brakes 286mm x 22mm. They are Schmeidmann and are a lightweight option we could use with genuine pads or uprated pads if you want. From Denmark. Cost about $560 plus shipping

Here is a link to the web site and an image.

Is there anyone interested in a group buy? I would be willing to contact them and ask if we have enough interest.

Yes they are Zimmerman (as shown in the photo) - here is the blurb from the Schmiedman website:

Zimmermann made in Germany! with Tüv approval!

Set/2pieces! OE.REF.NR. 34-11-1-165-455

I have not seen these retailed by anyone else. Do we know of a Zimmerman retailer in New Zealand that we could ask to get these for us here?

Weight is 12.58 KG for two including the packaging - so I figure a little less than 6kg each or 13 lbs. This is one pound lighter than the stock E36 rotor due mostly to the aluminium centre section I presume.

What other information would you want? So far the folks at Schmiedman have been good about replying to emails.

Cheers.

Would be nice to get someone importing zimmerman rotors - heard good things about them on all makes and models

i do think you can get them ordered in, you should ask *glenn* if he can source them

Just heard back from the Zimmerman guys, and even allowing for freight, price would work out higher than the ones quoted above. Worth a try though.

I just checked how much shipping would be by placing an order (then canceling before payment - as suggested by Schmiedmann) 171 euro = $356 NZD

This is a bit more than I expected. :(

Add this to the parts cost of euro269 ($561NZD) and we get a grand total of euro 451.28 = $941 NZD.

Gavin (Euro-Italian) - is this the price you would be looking at to get these?

Thanks.
