If you're willing to shave off some material from the stock caliper, I have a set of rotors using Wilwood 72 vane rings that also held up really well. Extra bonus being the Wilwood rings are also cheap.

I looked into Racing Brake but was skeptical on long term replacement rings, and haven't looked into Frozen before.

Unfortunately, the extra pad depth (2.25" vs 2") plus the bulky caliper design that has extra material that sits more inwards than necessary means a ton of great ring options just don't work for the Akebonos.

EDIT:
Another option I find interesting the Paragon's 2 piece kit

I have a set of their rotors I just bought for my Exige, which stood out due to vane count and air gap, which other OEM sized 2 piece rotors were worse on. I don't know much on how their rings hold up though.
