These appear to be fixed position calipers. Unless you also use c clip eliminators, you might run into problems with pad knock-back.

Ive got the Strange F+R. They work good for how I drive the car, and save about 35 pounds for the rear and 40 for the front. Also, you lost ebrake so there is weight there for lines and the handle. I realize some might not want to do that though. Just another option for you.
