While I understand how brake pads may exhibit different properties (less or more initial bite, less or more wear and dust), it seems a rotor (unless ceramic), is just a machined steel disk. Provided it's true, any brand would work the same. Someone above mentioned Centric brand which has a good reputation. They are not expensive and of good quality. While not a BMW, my Volvo was hell on rear brakes due to rust. Over the years, I tried expensive rotors (OE and Brembo) and cheaper no-name ones. Guess what, they all performed the same and all rusted at the same rate. So hence my skepticism about the value of pricey brake parts.
