I'm trying to find out what the weight difference is between the Brembo rotors and brakes compared to the regular ones.
I'm sure they are a bit heavier being bigger and probably thicker too and the pads and calipers are bigger as well.

I just don't know how much heavier.

I know the tires that come on the Brembo brake package are 2 lbs lighter than the OEM 18's and 4 lbs lighter than the optional non-Brembo 19's
Further, from what I "heard" and suspected the 19" Brembo wheels are 2-3 lbs lighter than the standard 18's and optional non-Brembo 19's.

So, the Brembo brake wheels/tires apparently are 4-5 lbs lighter per wheel/tire.

I'm just wondering if the Brembo brakes are 4-5 lbs heavier than the standard brakes and therefore it's nearly a wash, or if they are only 2-3 lbs heavier and there is still a rotational mass advantage (ie: less weight) with the Brembo brake package.

I realize 1-3 lbs either way per corner is minimal and won't really make any difference in performance, but it would be interesting to know for sure.

So if anybody has any inside factual information or maybe a shop who has taken the brakes off of the cars, please chime in and let us know what they weigh.

Thanks
