New Drilled brake rotors

Well I just got my set of 4 drilled rotors for my G37 08. and after I opened the box I found that the front brakes are kind of heavy I'm not sure if they are supposed to weight like that, I think they are too heavy for the car. Can some body tell me what is the right weight of each front drilled rotor?? thanks

OEM front sport brake rotors weigh about 31 lbs each.

It's a huge chunk of steel, what did you expect? They are the proper weight. Don't fret.
