Rear rotor: 21lbs

Stoptech 355mm front rotor: 19lbs (2-piece)

thanks buddy i looked forever for something like this when I was trying to decide on my AP racing bbk vs. stoptechs. One thing I like about AP racing is the lightweight and no rust ring. The stoptech BBK still get the same rust ring I had on my powerslot rotors from the pictures I saw
