I have used DBA 2 piece rotors. They worked well in an endurance racing Mustang.
Pros: worked well
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
Only installed dba dimpled and slotted rotors with bendix suv pads. Better bite than standard. Only had it for 1000km while towing my 4.5m tinny. Cant help with longevity
Pros: better bite than standard
Mileage: 1000 km
Dba t2 and hd pads. So much better than the hilux oems and at 100k km on the rotors now and changed pads once
Pros: much better than OEM
Mileage: 100000 km
Switched to Galfers last year on 2 bikes: rival and force. Out of my opinion, very well machined discs doing their job. I’m satisfied..
Pros: well machined discs
This is the combination that worked for me - Akebono 370z calipers - 2 piece floating DBA rotors w/ aluminum hats - Winmax W6 pads - 3" ducts from front bumper to backside of the hubs. An advantage to the aluminum hats is it really reduced heat transfer into the hubs, improving the life of the bearings. The floating design helps prevent warping and cracking from the stress of all the thermal cycling.
Pros: reduced heat transfer, prevents warping

Bought DBA T3 4000 rotors, DFC 5000 pads, a nice jack from harbor freight and some jackstands all for about 900 and did it all myself in about an hour and a half. Changing these pads and rotors are honestly a breeze.
Pros: easy to change
Dba rotors and nothing else
Pros: nothing else
Vehicle:
Hyundai
I currently have Galfer, SRAM, and the Shimano Ice Tech rotors in 180/200-203.. Honestly…I’m hard pressed to tell the differences between them once I’m going downhill.
Pros: hard pressed to tell differences
Cons: hard pressed to tell differences
Oh when I got high carbon DBA rotors with PMU pads the screeching was unbearable for street driving, track was fine with all the hard braking, but light breaking around town…..screeeeeeech.
Pros: track was fine
Cons: unbearable screeching
