Looking at replacing my front discs & considering Brembo Serie Oro or BMW OEM. Seems like Serie Oro is nearest aftermarket equivalent to OEM. Does anybody know how they compare?
They are for standard wheels.

Brembo
Broadly speaking the OEM brake discs (cast wheels), which are made by Brembo, are very similar to the Serie Oro discs. You are unlikely to notice the difference between the two so just buy whichever suits your budget.

Re: Brembo
Thanks Ry. There seems to be a greater than x2 price difference (serie Oro from carpimoto vs BMW)

Im one of those who bought Oro with new wheels. I'm using them with Ferodo Xrac pads, didnt notice any difference with OEM. But maybe I'm not braking hard enough.
Thanks!
I have Ore 4.5mm thick

Thanks Kyle. I'm looking for OEM or equivalent & the serie oro are half the price of BMW dealer oem. If serie oro are similar to oem then I'll be happy.
I have used ORO every time I replaced.
All good

Fitted my Serie Oro today. Look very similar to oem. Only difference is the floating washers are not captive on disc like oem.
Measured thickness with micrometer. New Serie Oro are 5.5 mm. Old oem were 5.0mm after 12k miles - not sure what they started at but likely 5.5 mm as there was a slight lip.

You can buy Oro in different thickness: 4.5, 5, 5.5
