3) it reduces the heat transfer to the hubs from the rotor
4) You can have fixed, semi-floating or fully floating rotors. Each has different advantages.
5) it is easier to select a custom brake set up as the bells have to be manufactured individually.

Its funny you didn't mention 'weight' as an advantage, as it was the first one that came into my mind and the only reason I would want a alu hat...
Any suppliers that use the porsche bolt pattern for their 10 bolts hat-disk?
