$500 for ebay rotors?!? For that price you might as well buy Z1 2-piece front rotors and save some weight, too.

The sports brake package rotor blanks are typically $59 apiece at the stores around here.

These were $463 shipped. Z1 2-piece rotors would be $1,193 shipped. I know they're a good product, but not worth the extra $730 for my purposes.

If you'll read my post again, you'll notice I specifically said front 2-piece rotors. The rears do less work but they cost more than the fronts because of the integrated e-brake drum.

At least the sprinkle slotted looks good.

I think mismatched rotors would look ridiculous. I'm guilty; I do care about aesthetics a little.

You can always get Z1 front 2-piece sprinkle slotted and generic 1-piece rear sprinkle slotted rotors to match.
