Hey guys, we're thinking about designing our own 2-piece rotors to fit on these AMG cars but not sure just yet..My question to you all is are you willing to purchase 2 piece rotors if we were to design these for the E55 and E63 AMG? Please let me know! It would be best if everyone could reply back with a yes, thumbs up, or like each person does a count down from 1-?? if you know what I mean. Hope to see what you guy think!

All depends on pricing to be honest. Well, not to push aside quality but money talks. I will eventually need a set for my E63, would love to get 2 piece but don't want to donate a kidney to do so.

r1concepts

I definitely know what you mean. Thanks for your response btw. I'll wait to see what everyone else thinks.

Hi

May I ask what is the advantage of 2 piece rotors over the Mercedes Benz rotors?

How much? And how light?

Like stated already. Depends on the weight and price.

r1concepts

Well depending on the vehicle such as the 07'-12' E63 AMG, they already come with OEM 2-piece rotors. These rotors will be lighter and bigger than a solid 1 piece rotor.

I'd be needing new rotors for my E55 in around 1000 miles or so ...I wouldn't mind purchasing if the price is right.

The thing is that OEM rotors are very good and most people here do drag instead of circuit (where high performance is needed).

So I really think it'll be dependent on the price and weight savings since the cars are getting old and value is depreciating lol

r1concepts

There's no price or how light these will weigh just yet. Just wanted to see how many of you guys will be willing to purchase if we were to make our own.

Price is important because there are allready options in the $1000 range. If the quality is good and is priced right then why not.

Also, I would be interested in correct directional 1 piece rotors. Directional cooling fins and not just visual slots. I have yet to find any 1 piece rotors that have directional cooling. If I decide to track my car it would be nice to have a affordable rotor to tear up with track pads. When I had my vette I could get track worthy directional rotors for $20.

This is what I would like to see in a 1 piece e55 rotor.

I do not know anything at all about vettes but did you miss a zero at the end ? as in it should've been 200 instead of 20 ?

or were they really that cheap lol

+1 to all previous statements.

e55amgrocket

Any ballpark price your shooting for?

moosejaw

+1
Im about to drop some coin on some 2 peice
If this is going to happen than i would like some information soon

BTW r1 concepts i cannot find anything about 2 peice rotors on your website.
Not one thing. Whats up with that?

I think most of the members here will be interested once we see how much we are saving in weight, and how much they are going to run. Most dont go this route for the price alone.

Enigma94

+1 interested depending on price and weight

SPatykAMG

I think you could see good sales with a comparable weight to others with a price around 700-800. Less preferably but I don't see it going under that.

As the E63 has 2 piece rotors, I would be interested in learning more about the replacement pieces.

There's a lot of these cars in the hands of enthusiasts so there's definitely a market for them. However what do you hope to accomplish by saying "hey.. We might make a part that fits your car. We're not sure what advantage it might have over your existing part(weight), and we're not sure how much it'll cost, but who's interested?"

I definitely think you'll be satisfied with the results should you move forward but you need to be better prepared next time before posting IMO.

ssigarto

Am interested and agree with the comments already stated.

moosejaw

Agree with the sentiments of Sir Boost

Nope, they were that cheap. Plain napa rotors and they were directional.

Denroll

Considering that certain sets of two-piece rotors offered now cost roughly 10% the price of an actual E55(!!!!), I'd be very interested in an affordable set that sheds pounds.

JoshBlond

Definitely be interested if the price is right.

Gkhan2

I would definitely be interested. I'll need rotors for my E63 soon.
