Hub style is about 10#s per side lighter as it replces the factory hub. The hat style slips over the factory hub.

Not really. At 79.00 we don't make much on them. They are discounted a few bucks with the brakes.

Look in the weight saving sticky, about 3 pages back from the last. Weight loss over stock brakes are listed there by sprayinls1

Factory fronts are a little ove 50#s. The spindles are a little over 45#s if I remember right.

The Aerospace hub style are under 25#s. The non hub style are about 35#s. The 3rd gen style are about 15#s. Our spindles are at about 10#s.

All weights are approximate and may be off a bit.
