Guys - Here's the scoop on Brembo manufactured discs, straight from Brembo's website.
AIMCO can be had for under $100 a rear rotor. Not bad for genuine Brembo parts...

Looking for set up for front pads and rotors. Thinking about 2 piece setup. Looks like there are only 2 set ups for our cars RRracing and Figs. Not sure which pads (low dust and lowest noise) would go with either setup for 20k+ daily driving and about 2 track sessions a year. After reading all 24 pages it looks like it is a good practice to swap for racing pads (which I need recommendation as well) for track day use. Also appears that RAYBESTOS are the exact match for OEM Brembos. Not sure if I even need 2 piece since mostly a DD car. Please provide input. Really overwhelmed.

You will feel the loss of rotating mass from 2pc rotors. Depending on the quality of the hat and ring, the ring might last quite some time and the hat generally doesn't need to replaced unless damaged (from what I know about them, could be wrong). It just depends on if you think it's worth ~$1000 initial and ~$700 for front ring replacements as needed. I had 2pc aftermarket rotors on my last car...it was cool, but completely unnecessary for my use.

^^^^Minimum thickness of the front rotors is 28mm. Max on the stockers was 30mm. Some aftermarket rotors are a bit thicker.

There are so many options. It truly comes down to what you plan on doing with the vehicle.. Track, city, a little of both. And how much you care about brake dust on your wheels..

Definitely reach out to speed freaks. They can walk you through all the options. Project mu ns400 is the gold standard as far as super low dust without losing much performance if any.. But there are other ceramic options that could work..
