Got Rotors!?!?!

Going to install a set of CTS-V binders that I hope helps stop some new power. Picked up a set of Brembo rotors and couldn't help posting a pic of rotor in proportion to the salad shooters its currently rolling around on. Found it kind of funny to be honest...think I even laughed a little when I opened the box. Holy hell these things are HUGE!

Thank god I went with UMI tubular stuff up front to offset the new weight!!

Can't wait to get these things on...

Hey Jeremy, we can't even get him to work on his car, and you want him to weigh a rim?

Lol, that's good stuff man. I was hoping for a weight on the rotor. I plan to run the same setup on my car. It kind of sucks to add that much unsprung weight but with the big open 18's on my car I need something like this to fill them out. Plus if it is way off I can change the valving on those new Penske C/O's I just picked up.

I'm going to ignore what the OLD war dog is blabbin' about up there....though there is some truth

Jeremy, I'll do what I can for ya...I would guess they're at least 50% heavier. I don't have the stockers off plus she's heading down the road for a couple weeks for some cosmetic upgrades. Could weigh the Brembo for ya though to give you part of your request...

If you want, look me up at the MiFbody site....
