You are probably right but I'm thinking long term like years, at the rate gas goes up I should save something LOL. Maybe if Donald Trump becomes President and does something to lower gas price.

The aftermarket 2-piece rotors are expensive, and many of the rear kits have steel hats and hence weight the same.
I'm planning to only replace the front rotors for now, CZP seem to have a promising product with a 2 piece front rotor for around $800 or so with aluminum grade hats. Saving 7lbs per rotor making a total of 14lbs, sounds decent. Anyone know how to convert this to static weight? Besides changing the rotors I want to use my stock Sport calipers, not going to track the car just a daily driver vehicle.
