Even if I have to replace the steel rotors more often and spend more in the long run, I prefer that route in the short to medium term.
We all need to make our own value call.

Driving and washing two M cars weekly with both brake types I find $8k of value in the ease of keeping the CCB wheels clean and not dealing with the rusty steel rotors after each wash.
Also the CCB/763 combo feels more nimble than the steel/666 combo during daily driving.

Just my two cents - if my M2CS was going to the track then for certain 100% would get steels if no track use then would get CCBs. Plus red calipers seem a bit much tbh.
