1pc vs 2pc rotor?
#1
#2
I found this on google for 2pc rotor...
Any other pointers anybody?
Advantages:
* Lighter rotor (12-16% weight reduction varied with the size and design) than original one-piece rotor – meaning lower spinning weight.
* Cooler disc - due to higher heat dissipation rate of aluminum hat as compared to cast iron
* True full floating design (unlike others out in the marketplace) allows the disc to expand and contract freely without stressing the hat. This helps prevent the disc from warping or cracking.
* Allows consumers to replace only the rotor ring, while reusiing the hat. Although the initial cost of two-piece rotors is higher than one-piece rotors, the lifetime operating cost could be lower.

1 piece rotor is also usually cheaper.
If this is for daily driving and you are not that agressive with the brakes, either will work. IMO, I'd go with 1 piece to save $$ assuming you are staying with stock calipers.
However if you are uprading calipers, then you most likely have to go with 2 piece.
