stoptech aerorotors vs EBC gold 2 piece rotors
is anyone running either the stoptech aerorotor or the EBC gold 2 piece rotors from Motech performance? Im in need of new rotors in the front and figured i might aswell upgrade to a 2 piece rotor so paying for rings will be cheaper in the future.

FYI Aerorotor rings are about $350 each plus you need to buy a new set of mounting hardware each time. If I were you I'd just go the FCP Euro route with OE/OEM rotors. Unless you're tracking a lot there's really not much benefit to justify the cost increase.
I went with the Aerorotors on my F31, and they do hold up very well, and definitely cool better on than the stock rotors on the track, but going the FCP + free exchanges route will be cheaper over the long haul. One nice thing about the Aerorotors is Stoptech rates them for 2mm wear instead of BMW's typical 1.6mm.

The second set (and all sets going forward) of rotors you buy from FCP, you send the first ones back that you purchased from them, and then they'll refund your purchase price on the 2nd/last set purchased.

Even when I asked Stoptech CS what the PN for the replacement ring for my disc was, they initially only gave me the one that didn't include HW.

We have always sold rings with hardware included. Will look into the new part numbers without the hardware. |
