    In watching a video about the new 2020 Dodge Charger Daytona Hellcat Widebody, I learned that this 717 hp. beast has two-piece rotors to complement its Brembo brakes (6-piston front and 4-piston rear).

    Since two-piece rotors are new to me, I researched them and found this informative video.

    I always say, if you can't afford to fix the car, don't buy it. Unfortunately, all too many people buy vehicles they can't afford to fix.

    I hear ya, but when you can buy replacements that work just as well for 1/4th price.....well.....no need to waste money.

    I'd want to know who says the quarter priced replacements work just as good before I buy them.

    Well, the guys who have used them......

    .....specifically a friend of mine with a Charger Hellcat....says the only way he can tell a difference is in how much he doesn't have to clean the rims.

    You know that has zero to do with the rotors, right?
