Can anyone fill me in, cliffnotes*, why I would purchase 2 front RB rotors for $720 vs getting all 4 Z4m OEM's from Tischer online for $788?

Aside from the thicker / ventilated performance which the rotors offer, is there anything I'm missing?

Pending a nudge from a knowledgeable member and I'll be on the groupbuy!
They're two piece rotors, you only need to replace the rotor rings in the future. Two piece rotors perform better than the semi-two piece OEM rotors.

If you read through my first post you'll see all the cliff notes. Rotors run much cooler than stock...cooler equals longer lasting components and less change of brake fade. RB rotors are harder the oem. Harder equals more resiliant and longer lasting components. TheHACK had put 4000 TRACK miles on his rotors and they were still going after 4 years of abuse. I have never heard of a OEM rotor lasting that long. Most people that track OEM rotors have to replace them fairly frequently in comparison.

I'm working on RB to include the rear rotors at a later date, they are currently working on them.
