Rear rotor: 21lbs

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

@teeithi: they are the 2 piece rotor option in stoptech's BBK. NOT the 1 piece powerslot rotors. Those weigh in around the stock 23 lbs

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
