I just swapped in the coated Zimmermans. They’re OEM, although they are a few pounds heavier than the originals.

Yeah, here in America, all 135i cars have the performance brake package. I actually just put the Zimmermans on my 135i yesterday. The front Zimmerman rotors weight about 3lbs more than the ones that come with the performance brake package, but the rears seem to be more or less identical.
