Hey guys
I was looking around for a lighter / cheaper rotor solution instead of the heavier costly OEM one. Well good news is that the 2 piece lightweight can be made but 10-20 sets need to be sold, but future replacement rings will still be in the 2 to 3 hundred dollar range. So this route would be more money but do able
Then I was referred to a shop that deals with Centric brake parts and found that the OEM parts are actually not that pricey vs you going to the stealership. Here is the website Prostockautoparts.com. Put in the 06-09 M5 and you'll see how decently priced the replacement rotors and pads are. Its better than 25% off I'll tell you that
So Hopefully it will save you guys and I some money!

I think before getting those I would consider the Stoptech Braking Components. I highly recommend it to all of my customers because they are REALLY quality parts and come at a great price!
.
I also offer really good discounts to my 5 Series Forum guys because I do my best to take care of you guys!
