Maybe not, but the small amount IF they do last longer can't be worth the extra money...
So you think a Brembo ITR rotor will out last a "white box" Legend rotor that is mm's thicker?
It's not like they make them out of some "special magic" material. Again, as stated, rotors are wear items. No need to spend the extra coin on them... spend it on seat time.

A rotor is a rotor is a rotor given it's "vained" and "blank" Valuecraft, OEM ITR, "white box" or Brembo. Your really not going to see any difference. FWIW, I only run "white box" Legend rotors. I see no need in buying others. I think you need to read up more on braking and braking dynamics. "most" of your braking is done via the pads... the rotor surface is just that... a surface.
I am right with Bbasso. I have also been using the cheap a$$ rotors. Been using them for about 4 years on the teg and never had a problem with warpage. And I drive the Dragon every weekend with her. They also come with 2 year warranty, so if you do warp them they will give you a new set. And the carquest cerarmic red brake pads are some of the best pads i have ever used. My cost... $22.00 Lesson here. You can spend big money on drilled and slotted rotors but i bet they will not give you a new set if you warp them.
