I will attempt to build more weight information on the different rotors = as they become available to me!

George (down under) I just can't see how you get 10 lb 9 oz rotor weight comparing these = weights, even though the RX7 rotors are a tad heavier! Hi George, It was just an estimate of weight, and not meant for anything = critical. I got that number by weighing a rotor I had in the garage, = along with a baggie of seals.
