which brake rotors to buy?

Meyle brake rotors come in high carbon and regular steel. What's the diff, and does it justify the higher cost?
Thanks

Not sure which ones I have, but they were ~$80 an axle
Its my DD and I also track it . The rotors have no issues

Do you have part numbers? I would like to look into that more. Yes higher carbon steel might be more resilient to abrasive brake pads.
