I absolutely loathed the SRAM brakes on my gravel/mtb bikes until I did 2 things:

1. Switched to Shimano rotors
2. Replaced the brake fluid in the system with Motul DOT5.1 vs sram stuff

The second one was very noticeable on rides where I am doing a lot of braking.

I found even the cheap Shimano RT66 rotors to be better than centerlines. FYI on Jenson a pair of 160mm RT86 ice-techs can be had for less than a single 2-piece centerline rotor.
