E70 requires one bolt on the front and rear rotors to hold it in place. I was able to use only one bolt on the front and non on the rear due to the bolt hole not being in the same spot as my oem rotor so i used the wheel bolts to hold it in place. |

Looks great! I will be doing this when it's time for replacement. I don't the 1vs2 rotor bolts will make any difference. After all, the lug nuts are holding pretty hard.

Pretty much this. One could argue, you don't need any at all since again, the lugnuts are applying their force to the hub

The difference being they're just drilled rotors, correct?

I see what u r saying, but even tho original E70 M rotors is technically a 2 piece, they do still have a large portion of the iron disk that is molded into the center hub. What I'm referring to is by 2 piece is the usual design where the iron rotor ring is just the ring it self and the majority of the hub is alloy which attaches to the rotor ring itself by hardware, this is more inline with aftermarket big brake kit rotor designs

Going from RFT to non-RFT is beneficial, however conceptually, reducing mass from the rotor and the wheel itself in this case is no different as both of these are rotating mass, what you are referring to is if the reduction came from moving components such as the hub carrier but not rotating mass which the brake rotor is a part of
