Default Stock rotors weight?

Does anyone know exactly what all 4 of the stock rotors weight, and how much light weight rotors cost?

I remember on my LT1 a box of 4 stock rotors was mega heavy, like 40-50#s!!

I weighed a stock rear rotor when I put my Moser in....15lbs for one rear rotor.

I didn't weigh my rotors, but just from picking them up, my stock rotors felt heavier than the 13.5" two piece Baers that replaced them. The aluminum hat on the Baer/Alcon rotor saves a lot of weight.

Hey Larry, thanks for the ref man. But the sale ended on the 14th. However, if our good buddy Terry would like to give us a call we'll try to help him out with a GOOD price.

Chris, how much weight can I save with rotors you offer? I'm doing it only for weight savings, so maybe the front rotors only work out to be a better value?

It won't be much because the Eradispeeds do have a thicker then stock surface. However we are talking about unsprung, rotational mass, in the front of the car. Three VERY critical points. If you call me tomorrow I will weigh them for you.

The 13.5" Baer/Alcon rotors come with the Pro+ & Extreme+ systems. Replacement cost is about $600/rotor.
