Message	weight savings I can get. 1lb of unsprung weight reduction is at least 4x as effective as a 1lb reduction of sprung weight. Some spend $1000 for 2-piece rotors which save only a couple pounds. The 370Z rears are much larger diameter but the same weight as our stock rears. Since the larger diameter mainly serves to even out brake bias, I'd rather save the weight.
