Just about every vendor has something to offer. Pick your price and what you expect the parts to do and go from there.

No actually I meant that brand. Someone is selling used 2pc rotors and I need to talk to someone about getting new front rings/bolts, etc. I guess I didn't make it clear enough.

Thanks guys, racingbrake.com....major DUHH on my part.

Sidney - A guy is selling used RB 2pc rotors - I can get all 4 for a pretty sweet deal but I'd need to buy new front rings...those bastards are PRICEY. Do you have any experience/opinions on their Open Slot rotors, at $300 per Ring?? Per their website: ]Not only will the rotors last 3 times or more longer than competitions' two-piece rotors, they can deliver consistent brake torque under extreme heat, session after session. When it comes to replacement - operating cost over the time will be lower than one-piece rotor. Is that so???

I was also thinking about going with the AFX front rotors only, those rings are a little less than $200/ea.

Cooling ducts are in place and I'll probably throw in the DRM stainless pistons too.

No experience with RB rotors on my part but I am skeptical that they can last 3X longer than other 2 piece rotors and $300 a ring does seem high. Read this part on pad compatibility:

I was very disappointed with RB rotors on the Z06. Held up better than OEM....maybe 50% longer...no more.

I have a full set available as well for sale. I think the design is good, just not premium quality metallurgy.
