I would buy the ATE brake calipers 100% of the time.
Bosch may be well known, but their strength lies in their electronics: ECUs, sensors, ignition coils and fuel injectors. Brakes aren’t their strong suit, as my experience with their brake pads left me dissatisfied.
ATE, on the other hand, focuses solely on making brake products. Brake fluid, calipers, hoses, boosters and master cylinders. They have been supplying brake parts to Mercedes since the 80s (probably even earlier). Their products are also found in Porsches, too.
