What is the best pricing for PFC, RB, and Stop Tech 2-piece rotors? Can anyone recommend a vendor? I think I'm most interested in the PFCs. If any vendor sees this, please PM me your pricing shipped to 22066. Thanks.

I have your setup for the street and I'm happy. The rotors see the track and have not had any problems.

I got a pair of PFs. I was very disappointed that the hardware holding together the rotors started rusting the first day they got wet. You would think for $250+ a rotor they could use stainless hardware.

I have yet to find any information that shows two piece rotors are better at cooling then solids. I know you do shed some weight but that is a pretty expensive price to pay for a few LBS.

I can't get myself to drop $500 on a rotor and then pay even more for the replacement disks than a decent solid would cost.

^ LOL NS!

The two lowest priced 2 piece rotor sets I sourced were RB for $549 shipped and PF for $537 shipped. The thing is if they don't cool any better then I don't really want them.

I've been running the Rotor Pro solids for three years and haven't and any quality related problems. I imagine a better solid like an RB would last longer but for $200 I can abuse the crap out of them for several lapping days and toss then toss them in the garbage. I don't think the two piece will last two and a half times as long.
