I've seen people making them from both 316 and 304 and even a few outfits using cold rolled steel and then plating it so I'm not to sure if the material is all that important except in perhaps some kind of high performance application. If I was going to make some rotors I'd use 316 since it's relatively easy to find and takes a nice finish after it's been surface ground.
